The secret of Kimchi
Kimchi are fermented vegetables and pastes, which are eaten in South Korea as a side dish. The lactic fermentation ensures strong tastes and odors, similar to the “fifth taste” of umami, the natural flavor enhancer in Japanese dishes. Kimchi is the fifth taste of the Korean cuisine. This is taken to Belgium by two star chef Sang-Hoon Degeimbre, born in South Korea, but raised in Belgium. He uses Kimchi in his French-oriented cuisine for the Korean accents.
