Kimchi - Korean Superfood

[Expiration Date of Kimchi]

• During the fermentation process, Kimchi produces lactic acid bacteria, and its sour taste becomes stronger over time
• During fermentation process, umami and acidity are added, giving sour Kimchi a deep and complex taste
• The deep flavor of fermented Kimchi is a special taste that cannot be easily experienced in other foods and shows the dimension of flavor that only fermented foods that have been aged for a long time can provide
• Since Kimchi is a food that can be stored and eaten for a long time, most products have an expiration date of 6 to 12 months from the date of manufacture, and some products do not even have an expiration date indicated
• You can safely eat Kimchi for several months even after the expiration date

 

[Fermentation of Kimchi]

• If you refrigerate our Kimchi as soon as you received it, full scale fermentation begins approximately 7 to 10 days after production
• The time it takes to reach a fermented taste of PH 4.5 or lower will vary depending on subsequent temperature control, air exposure, etc.
• To expedite the fermentation process, keep the Kimchi at a room temperature for 1-3 days before refrigeration
