I even ate at a few places in Seoul where it was just Kimchi, Ramen, Sesame Oil and water. Where were you teaching at in SK?

Basically I like anything that is spicey and has mushrooms. I personally like kimchi with pork, I dont think I have had it with tuna though.

I remember living in Korea during the SARS 'crisis'. I believe I recall the Korean government attributing the lack of cases in Korea to the health benefits of kim chi. Bit of a stretch, methinks, but at the same time it is delicious!

I'm, unfortunately, eating it much less than I was once used to! It's darn good!

Thanks for the reply! Generally, we buy homemade kimchi at the local Korean market. Sometimes we’ll hit up Koreatown when in Toronto, but there’s also a small Korean grocer in Hamilton that carries everything we need (and more). That being said, I'm pretty well versed at making kim-chi from scratch. My students at Chonnam university had me over on several occasions to show me how it was done. As soon as we score some of those large earthern jars, we'll be sure to bury some to ferment in our backyard!

Kimchi chigae is my favorite food in the whole wide world. I used to eat it every day without fail... and sometimes twice a day. But at the very minimum 5 times a week. Disappointingly, since I've been back to the states, I haven't had any for almost 5 months now.

I have a few Korean friends and they don't even know how kimchi is made unless it came from a bottle or as a restaurant side dish. Kudos!
