Kala's kimchi (in English)

About the course

At this workshop, you’ll learn to craft authentic, flavorful kimchi using traditional techniques and fresh ingredients. You will learn to make traditional cabbage kimchi and one other seasonal variation. Kala will guide you step-by-step through the fermentation process, sharing tips for perfecting flavors and helping you customize your creations. Whether you’re a beginner or experienced fermenter, this class is the perfect opportunity to master one of the world’s most iconic fermented foods.

Kala will guide you through the fermentation process, giving you all the tools to keep the process on track at home.

Flavors and customization

You will learn to balance flavors and find creative ways to customize your kimchi to suit your taste.
