Any vegan Kimchi recipes you guys recommend? I've been tempted in the past as I love sauerkraut but all the pre-made stuff has fish sauce in it.

Fish sauce is basically salt and umami so you could substitute something clever, perhaps seaweed based to give the fishy thang?

We've made this one (and sold it in our dumpling stall). It's great!

Soy (light) sauce works instead of fish sauce. I've been making various kimchi recipes for years. Fave is with mouli/raddish.

Also make kombucha which is fermented tea. So good for your gut. There's a wealth of ingredients for that. Fruit and/or veg. Will share recipes and advice if anyone interested

I usually make vegan kimchi. Just leave out the fish sauce and it’s great.

I don’t know if it’s the cabbage I use, but my kimchi never lasts very long. It’s great in the first and second weeks, but third week it usually starts tasting a bit alcoholic/mildewy so I bin it at that point. I thought it was supposed to last a long time? Stored in the fridge in a sealed Kilner jar. Any ideas?
