Kim Chi

Kimchi is a traditional Korean dish of fermented vegetables, most commonly napa cabbage and radishes, seasoned with chili pepper, garlic, ginger, and fish sauce.
The fermentation produces a pungent, tangy flavor that ranges from mild to intensely sour depending on age.
Kimchi accompanies nearly every Korean meal and appears in dishes like kimchi fried rice and kimchi jjigae (stew).
