Tips:
1. The kimchi jar must not be stained with raw water. Pay attention to the hygiene of the edge of the jar. Clean it once every three days.
2. In our hometown, we use Zhiyan radish (also known as Xinlimei radish) to raise jar water, which will make the jar water powder very beautiful! If you don’t choose to use purple cabbage for soaking, the color will be the same and beautiful.
The color made from beetroot is even more beautiful!
3. The kimchi jar should not be stained with oil. Wash your hands every time you take kimchi and dry the raw water on your hands.
4. Every time you add vegetables, add a little white wine and salt. The kimchi will be very crisp after adding wine. It can also prevent the water from blooming.
5. It takes a week for the kimchi to be soaked in the first time. After the salt water is raised, the second time you add vegetables to soak the vegetables for a day or two. If you don’t eat them often, you can make less vegetables, or Sauerkraut is also great for cooking sauerkraut fish or sauerkraut vermicelli!
6. You can cut half an apple and put it in the kimchi jar. After the apple is fermented, it will produce fruit acid, which can improve the taste of kimchi.
