Question: are there any scientific methods in the making of kimchi?

Keywords:

  1. Dear Michelle; Making tasty Kimchi involves a lot of science. The first process of salting and making the vegetables soft is osmosis. Getting the right lactobacilli for fermentation before Kimchi turn to sour is another part of science.

    To keep Kimchi through the winter until the vegetables available next spring, the amount of salt added is very important.

    In old times, we used to keep the Kimchi in Kimchi pottery jar and burried the jar in the ground up to brim but nowadays Kimchi refrigerator is available. It is another success of science and technology. Thank you for asking this Kimchi question and I have the privilege of explaining to you involving science!
