Shelf Stable Kimchi (1 pack 8 ea)

For this size Is a rip off

Très bon et tout petit juste pour un repas pas plus

My first time trying kimchi. I have nothing to compare it to but I know I like it a lot. The price of this was high considering the ingredients used, but it is nice to get the idea on taste. I liked it enough that I've decided to find a recipe and make my own. It was well worth the try for sure. Perfect crunchiness and spice for my tastes.

Muito bom produto picante mas poderia ser mais para o meu gosto.

Honestly, I never thought kimchi would taste this good. The flavor is perfectly balanced — tangy, slightly spicy, and full of umami. It doesn’t feel overly salty or sour like some brands I’ve tried before. I started adding it to rice, eggs, and even sandwiches, and it instantly elevates the meal. It also feels light and gut-friendly, which is a great bonus.

I have to say, this is pretty legit kimchi for something from a shelf-stable bag! My cousin's wife, who is Korean, makes a lot of homemade kimchi in a variety of recipes, and since we hang out a good bit, I eat a lot. Not an expert, but I know the good stuff. This is not homemade, but any stretch, but it is far, far better than I expected. I purchased these for a lengthy camping trip, for when the fresh veggies ran out, and was pleasantly surprised when I cracked open a bag. The texture is excellent, there's some radish and thick ribs left to give it a nice crunch. There's a nice little heat, but it isn't demanding, has some proper funk. Now I get these pretty often. They are really convenient to snack on at work, or dump in a ramen, or stir fry with some rice when I am in a hurry. I find one package is a good-sized serving for me. Even my 15 year old likes them (I find the wrappers in her room). Just don't expect the depth and intensity of homemade or some of the quality refrigerated ones from H Mart, and you will probably enjoy these. The two spicy ones are pretty legit spicy, and I love heat!
