Servings: 8

 

Ingredients:

1/4 cup anchovy sauce

1/4 cup beef stock

Brine

2/3 cup Korean chile pepper flakes

3 ounces Korean chives or 1/2 bunch European chives, cut into 4-inch pieces (about 1/4 cup)

2 tablespoons minced garlic

4 green onions, green parts only, cut into 2-inch pieces (about 1/2 cup)

2 tablespoons kosher salt

2 medium heads (4 to 5 pounds total) napa cabbage

6 to 8 fresh oysters (optional)

1/3 cup Sweet Rice-Flour Porridge

Seasoning Paste

2 tablespoons salted shrimp

2 teaspoons sugar

1/2 cup thinly sliced yellow onion

Equipment:

colander

bowl

food processor

Cooking instruction summary:

Procedures 1 Cut the cabbage into quarters, and then cut each quarter in half lengthwise and cut out the core. Lay each cabbage segment flat, then quarter into sections about 1 inch wide by 6 inches long. If some of the leaves are too wide, cut them to approximate proportions. In a large bowl, toss the cabbage with the salt and set aside to brine for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Rinse off the salt in a bowl of cold water and let the cabbage leaves drain in a colander for 20 minutes. 2 To make the seasoning paste, in a mini food processor fitted with a metal blade, purée the shrimp, porridge, anchovy sauce, stock, garlic, ginger, and sugar. Transfer the mixture to a bowl and add 1/4 cup of the chile pepper flakes and mix by hand. Let the seasoning paste sit for 15 minutes to let the flavors combine. 3 In a large bowl, toss the cabbage, onion, green onions, and chives with the remaining chile pepper flakes until the chile pepper flakes lightly coat the vegetables. Add the seasoning paste and oysters and mix until evenly distributed. Pack tightly into a 2-quart container, cover, and set aside for up to 2 days at room temperature. Then move the container to a refrigerator. You can also eat the kimchi immediately, but I prefer the slightly aged, fermented taste. As it ferments, cabbage will expand, so be sure to place the jar on a plate or in a bowl to catch the overflow.

Food Trivia

The fig is also a fertility symbol and the Arab association with male genitals is so strong that the original word 'fig' is considered improper.

Food Joke

The Passover test [My thanks to Jeff G for the following] Sean is waiting for a bus when another man joins him at the bus stop. After 20 minutes of waiting, Sean takes out a sandwich from his lunch box and starts to eat. But noticing the other man watching, Sean asks, "Would you like one? My wife has made me plenty." "Thank you very much, but I must decline your kind offer," says the other man, "I’m Rabbi Levy." "Nice to meet you, Rabbi," says Sean, "but my sandwiches are alright for you to eat. They only contain cheese. There’s no meat in them." "It’s very kind of you," says Rabbi Levy, "but today we Jews are celebrating Passover. It would be a great sin to eat a sandwich because during the 8 days of Passover, we cannot eat bread. In fact it would be a sin comparable to the sin of adultery." "OK," says Sean, "but it’s difficult for me to understand the significance of what you’ve just said." Many weeks later, Sean and Rabbi Levy meet again. Sean says, "Do you remember, Rabbi, that when we last met, I offered you a sandwich which you refused because you said eating bread on Passover would be as great a sin as that of adultery?" Rabbi Levy replies, "Yes, I remember saying that." "Well, Rabbi," says Sean, "that day, I went over to my mistress’s apartment and told her what you said. We then tried out both the sins, but I must admit, we just couldn’t see the comparison."
