Young Radish Kimchee

I made this discovery way too late. Way. Too. Late. Have you guys heard of young radish kimchee? Oh my gosh, it is so good! Here’s the story. I went to Queen’s Supermarket to grab my usual kimchee and decided to try some of the fresh kimchee selections. I saw the whole radish kimchee and totally had to try it. I love watching Korean dramas and those crazy people who take a bite out of the whole radish in the middle of the night out of anger. I’m weird, I know. Anyhow, there is this leafy green on top of the radish and I enjoyed it at a lot. Then I realized they sell the leafy tops on their own! It’s called young radish kimchee and it is glorious. The texture is what makes it the best. It looks a bit like choy sum but has the texture of super crisp ong choy. It’s SO good. Please give it a try when you have the chance!

    So funny, I was there just the other day too to get Kim chee! I was really mad though bc the workers there, the two really short dudes with glasses were such rude sobs! Wanted some help and they refused to help saying in awful English…” If no more no more…” I wish them 7 years of rotten Kim chee. It was beyond rude! The Kim chee lady is cool though.

    • Ah shucks sorry to hear that Anon! If it helps any, I get terrible service there too. But yes, they can never lose the kimchee Ahjumma. Best kimchee in hawaii!
