I made this about a week ago. I dd not add the fresh chili pepper slices. But the chili powder I used may not have been the right kind. I bought what was labeled just "red chili powder" in an Asian market, the package was only about 1/2 cup. I used it all. It is so incredibly spicy I can hardly eat it. Delicious but HOT! And I like really hot foods, but this was spicier than I remember kimchi being. Will it become milder the longer it ferments? If not I think I'll make soup with it.

How long will it keep in the refridgerator?

Can you please show me how to make radish kimchi, I tried a couple of times but it didn't taste the same. Thank you

@06haneul @aerieskitchen yes, you CAN use green cabbage for kimchi, I did it for 5 years when I did not have access to napa cabbage, It does not taste the same but it works. It also takes longer to ferment, almost twice as long!

I have so much respect for those who even attempt to make Kimchi! xD Looks like it takes so much time and effort! Great dish! :D Love your videos! :D <3
