KIMCHI PASTE

• Place the ginger, garlic and onion to the TM Bowl. Mince 5 sec/Speed 9.

• Add the Korean chilli and fish sauce (or 1/2 cup of brine if vegetarian) to the garlic mixture. Combine 15 sec/Speed 6.5.
• Add the Kimchi paste to the drained mixed vegetables.
• Mix the paste through the vegetables thoroughly, until they’re completely covered.
• Lightly press the kimchi into a 2 litre fermenting crock.

• Place a crockery weight on top of the vegetable to keep them submerged as they ferment.
• Cover the jar or the crock lid to deter unwanted insects or particles. They won't be able to get in the crock but as water bubbles out onto the plate they may be attracted. 
• The fermenting crock can sit on the kitchen bench away from sunlight until it's ready.
