Blue Wednesday - "'Apple Pies & Butterflies"

My playlist of preferred cooking tunes, Bangers with Babish!

As someone who is formerly homeless in LA, I gotta thank Roy Choi and everyone else who help out the folks in Skid Row. It's a rough situation, and the folks passing out food made things feel more normal. And normal is really necessary for the homeless.

The fact you didn't release a series called 'Collabish' with all these features is disappointing

[TheMrBadua]

Last time I was this early the Kimchi was still cabbage.

Joshua Weissman: "I feel a disturbance in the force. As if millions were making sourdough and were suddenly silenced."

Is anyone else curious how Squarespace is able to turn a profit when they're busy sponsoring EVERY SINGLE website and podcast on planet Earth??

As a former employee of one of Roy's ventures, I can attest to his craftiness and innovations in the kitchen. Definitely a leader of the true school. Bringing street culture into the kitchen and vice versa. Hats off to you Babish x Roy!

if you want to try the non-carpool lane route, maangchi's kimchi is seriously the best

[thegreatskinkpriest]

Me: hmm I’ve never had kimchi I wonder if I’d like it
Andrew: fifteen cloves of garlic
Me: I love it

[accidentalfrenchfries]

My grandma held a HUGE kimchi-making day and I was in charge of the onions and radishes (there were like 20 lbs of each) and my hands smelled like them for a week after.

[chaeminkim]

North style Kimchi: noo! You shouldn't use too much spices!
South style Kimchi: hehe salted fish goes *SPLASH*

[tommydebo]

Roy: Where'd you get this recipe?
Andrew:....uhhhh, it's yours.
Roy: *surprised Pikachu*

[seanimationsyt]

Babish: bashes sourdough
*angry Joshua Weissman noises*

[TheRealGuywithoutaMustache]

I've personally never tried kimchi, but after watching this, I am convinced and I'll definitely give it a chance.

[pansernes]

Me: "Hell yeah, can't wait to learn how to make Kimchi!"

Andrew: "I've tried twice and failed."

nvm

Brad Leone’s crying somewhere knowing Babish did a fermentation episode without him

[pikachu-oufl]

If you have the space and time I really recommend cutting the cabbage in half instead of quarters. It definitely more difficult but cutting in half will give it a better and a deeper flavor and it can ferment longer without going too sour. Also instead of sugar I really recommend either apples or Asian pears as it gives more of a fresh taste. Finally salted baby shrimp is a must in traditional Kimchi, don't worry you wont taste any weird fishy taste rather it is great at seasoning the kimchi. Either way Kimchi is a great little project because you don't need to follow certain rules. Every family has different recipes and styles of kimchi but its always a great healthy addition to your fridge. Also remember you can make kimchi with spring onions, radish and other thing that aren't nappa cabbage so it's great to experiment. In conclusion, I am very Korean and I hope you can enjoy good kimchi at home during this pandemic.
