Vlogging every day in August, whoo!
-
LA Edition. So today i had my live show
with LikeKristen. It was fantastic. We
-
talked about a lot of mental health issues
and topics!
-
There were lots of viewers and
participants, it was great!
-
This mommy sauce always freaks me out.

I was asked by Karola in the comments
of my last video, some questions about
-
kimchi, particularly what to look out for, and
how to combine it with foods. Here is my
-
go-to kimchi brand. This is what I would
get in the DC area and i'm getting it,
-
the same thing, in LA.
-
It is King's brand. There are also other
things like, uh, mother-in-law
-
brand of kimchi. I think, uh, Sun-Ji brand
kimchi might be another one, but
-
something that i usually do not do is I
usually do not get the homemade or the store
-
made brands of kimchi in asian markets
because they pretty much always have
-
anchovies. Not artichokes, anchovies. It's a
fish product. It doesn't seem to make
-
much of a difference whether it's a
regular old cabbage kimchi, which most
-
people are familiar with, or cucumber
kimchi or radish kimchi or winter kimchi--
-
doesn't matter, it always seems to have
anchovies in it if it's authentic. However, many
-
of the jarred kimchi's, like this, that you'll
find in a mainstream grocery store, will
-
leave out the anchovy, much to my delight!
So this one just contains: cabbage, garlic
-
green onion, hot pepper, sugar, salt,
paprika, and ginger.
-
That's it! I grew up in Korea for 13
years, so I grew up on Kimchi.
-
I am perfectly delighted to sit down with a
bowl of rice and a small plate of kimchi
-
and just eat that. If I'm feeling
fancy I just toss in some seaweed. Some seaweed!
-
White rice, seaweed, kimchi and I'm a
happy boy.
-
But i will also take things like really
inexpensive ramen and I will toss in the
-
kimchi with the ramen, either while it's
cooking or right after cooking, it helps
-
in cool down, actually, which is nice.
-
Do you have any questions about kimchi? did you
catch my live show with Kristin?
-
Do you have any other comments for me?
Anything that matters to you because I
-
want to know what matters to you?
-
Please leave them in the comments below.
I'd appreciate it. Thank you for watching
-
to the end of my video,
-
at the end of my videos is where I
always say:
-
Tomorrow
-
will be even better!
