Cucumber Kimchi

Cucumber Kimchi

Everyday

Cucumber kimchi is a Korean fermented side dish featuring crisp cucumbers as the main ingredient instead of traditional napa cabbage. The cucumbers are typically stuffed or marinated in a spicy paste of chili flakes, garlic, ginger, and often seafood-derived ingredients like fish sauce, then undergo lacto-fermentation that preserves their crunch while developing tangy flavors. This low-calorie condiment provides probiotics for gut health along with vitamins A and C, though vegan versions substitute the seafood components. Commonly served as a banchan (side dish), it offers a refreshing contrast to rich Korean barbecue meats and rice-based meals.
