Kim chee is Korea's favourite food, a condiment of pickled, seasoned vegetables that expresses the very essence of Korean cosmology with its basic code of five colours and flavours symbolizing universal actions, directions, and seasonal changes. Rooted in the theories of Yin and Yang, kim chee is known as an appetite stimulant, for its high vitamin C content, and its beneficial lactic acid micro-organisms. This book includes 90 recipes ranging from traditional whole cabbage kim chee to gourmet stuffed crab shell kim chee. It also places kim chee in its historical, cultural and scientific contexts. Illustrated in colour, this is a fascinating look into Korean cuisine and culture.
