Kimchi has become an essential condiment in my cooking. As a college student, it gets difficult to eat enough veggies. The hassle of having to wash every leaf thoroughly is what prevents me from reaching for it. I do love my veggies and I especially love spicy food, so a jar of ready-to-eat kimchi does wonders. I can eat it as is, or use it as a broth. In this case, I can please my tummy, which craves for carbs constantly, without feeling too guilty. And it can’t get any easier, or faster, than this! I absolutely love the texture of this pancake—an explanation cannot justify it well enough, so you’ll just have to try out its amazing-ness for yourself!
