Maangchi makes kimchi to share in Seoul

Cooking creator Maangchi made kimchi in Seoul in 2015 to share with readers and viewers, in a video released in 2024. It is an archival pick, not a new trip.

Kimchi for a gathering

After finishing her first cookbook, Maangchi returned to Korea in 2015 and made kimchi in Seoul for a meetup with readers and viewers. The video follows her from choosing ingredients to mixing the seasoning, coating the cabbage and sharing the food.

The video was released in October 2024; the trip took place earlier.

The recipe

In her recipe notes, Maangchi describes using one napa cabbage, fish sauce instead of salted shrimp and ripe persimmons for sweetness. The video shows both the cooking and the people eating together.

YouTube discloses that Maangchi may earn commissions on tagged products. This article links to the original video and recipe and does not recommend those products.
