A friend of mine has a local fermented foods business and we often share ideas and techniques with one another. She recently shared her recipe for cucumber kimchi with me and this one is delicious. I tweaked her recipe a little and in my opinion it’s fantastic – nice and crisp, sour like a good pickle yet spicy like a good kimchi. Who needs regular pickles when you can have this?
