Kimchi Slaw

Sharing is caring!

Meet my latest obsession kimchi slaw.  I am totally digging on this recipe in a big way.  As in, I need to make this kimchi slaw everyday.  This recipe came about while working on another recipe.  I enjoy kimchi I order it at a restaurant but I am super neverous to make it in the traditional manner.  That being said, I am apologizing to the kimchi police now.  This IS NOT traditional, I get it!

The lovely thing about this recipe besides being so darn good, is that it does not require the long fermentation process.  I did some research, found out the ingredients I needed to make kimchi, and went from there.  

I thought about tucking it way in a mason jar for a few days, while I anxiously waited, then I started tasting it along the way.  It was so good, that I decided (and it worked) that it could hang out on the counter for the day and be ready that evening.  If I can be honest here, a couple batches never made it past an hour because I just could not stop myself from eating it.  

Most recipes I found asked for a sweetener of some sort, either agave, honey or in most cases brown sugar.  I opted for my other obsession, Mike’s Hot Honey.  This honey is like a confused party, a little bit sweet, a little sour and spicy with every bite.  It is really kind of crazy good this stuff is.

Hot honey? I gotta check that out. This reminds me of a relish that my mother in law makes and my kids just go crazy for it. I will have to make your slaw for them soon.

You are speaking my language!!! I must make this, I can see putting this on just about everything (especially with all the Memorial Day grilling up ahead). And I've also been meaning to try Mike's Hot Honey for a long time, too!
