The most essential dish in Korean cuisine, kimchi is prepared with various ingredients. There are well over 100 varieties but the most common is cabbage. Kimchi is used to add texture and bite to food as a banchan, or to flavour soups and stews for wonderfully comforting meals. A very typical weekday meal in a Korean home, kimchi jjigae is very simple and can be made with or without some sort of meat.
