Kimchi is a traditional Korean pickled vegetable snack. Kimchi is a delicious juicy and often spicy snack. Kimchi is well preserved due to the acid contained in the marinade.

Ooo I like this topic. My hobby is collecting hobbies, especially weird niche ones.

Late Iron Age/Viking fighting (sword, spear, axe with a shield, some wrestling and Dane Axe/polearms)
Some Historical Reenactment
Nålbinding (like a very old style of knitting... sort of)
Weaving
Backstrap weaving
Hand spinning with a spindle (Honestly a lot of fibrecraft stuff related to spinning and weaving)
Bouldering
Some woodworking
Sourdough baking
Kombucha fermenting
Very occasional data bending art
Very occasional stick throwing
Very occasional bolas throwing
Very occasional axe throwing
YouTube video making (which I'm getting back to now)
Also some kimchi making though with mixed results so far.

Edit:

OH!

Also:
Visible clothes mending (this is something I've really got into the last 2 years or so)
Magnet fishing when I have a magnet that isn't lost to the watery depths (RIP magnet 1 and 2)
Also I designed a TTRPG a few months back and I don't want it to be my last so lets add that as a hobby.

I didn't reach burying-it-in-a-clay-pot level of authenticity, but I think the multiple cups of Gochugaru/Chilli flakes per cabbage got me close enough Grin

Soaked apples were my favorite treat when I was a kid. And I still love it very much. It's very easy to do this. But it is important that apples should be tough and should be stored ready-made in a cold place, just like cabbage.
the recipe for a 3 liter jar.

Ingredients:
- apples - 2.5 kg.;
- honey - 2-3 tablespoons;
- salt - 1.5 tablespoons;
- leaves of raspberries, cherries, grapes, currants, lemon balm;
- water - 1.5 liters

5-6 days if you are cold or 2 days if you are hot and then we put it in a cold place. The apples will be ready in 2 weeks. It's very tasty.

Sounds like a great way to store apples and keep them tasty.
