Cucumber Kimchi

Very quick and easy to make! I'm for sure going to make this again! Substitute rice vinegar for white distilled vinegar.

The directions were a little lacking, but I think I figured it out. It's pretty good

Add a little fish sauce

This is one of my favorite go-to side dishes. It's an incredibly refreshing dish with just the right hit of spice (depending on how hard you hit the gochugaru) and tang to cut any richness of the food you're eating. And, according to Koreans I've hosted, it tastes really authentic. 😊

If you don't have gochugaru, you can substitute it with 2 tbs paprika, 1/2 tbs cayenne pepper, and 1/2 tbs crushed red pepper. You can also add carrots and white onions to this.
