Kimchi is an incredibly healthy and delicious category of Korean pickled vegetables, the most commonly known being poggi, the red, chili-infused fermented nappa cabbage found on almost every Korean restaurant table. However, the techniques and ingredients for this traditional Korean dish can vary tremendously, and provide an entry point to the fascinating and diverse world of Korean cuisine.
But can kimchi help make the world a better place? Toronto celebrity chef Sang Kim thinks so. In 2018 Chef Sang started a #GiftingKimchi campaign, dropping off homemade kimchi to people doing positive things in the community, and the response has been incredible. So now Chef Sang is leveling up, offering this hands-on workshop on both classic nappa cabbage kimchi, as well as a more contemporary watermelon radish kimchi — so that you can make, enjoy and share kimchi of your own!
And to make this class even more special, Chef Sang will be donating all proceeds to the #TorontoStrong Fund to support victims of the North York van attack.
