Just following on from Hidden 's post about kimchi - which might raise the question "what on earth do I do with kimchi anyway?" - I thought it might be worth mentioning this low-carb Korean classic:

Before lockdowns were fashionable, we used to eat this about once a week. It's filling, it's healthy, and it makes a great get-together meal. An ample supply of soju is recommended.

Thanks for this. I happen to be right on the edge of K-town and thought of diverging to H-mart, but then realised I don't have enough luggage space for a supermarket trip.

Our Korean readers (if there are any) are coming to sort you out, Mike :)

Kimchi is all about spice and garlic. Very different product, IMO.
