An ode to kimchi.

A magical dish was born long ago

In the land where the Great Wall stands.

It came to Korea and stayed to be called

The healthiest food in demand.

Eat as much as you want

It's what Koreans do know.

The ingredients are natural,

Calorie intake- surprisingly low.

To make it is actually quite simple.
What you should start with is a big ole' bowl
Add some water and salt
And set soak for 6 hours a cabbage whole.

Is it nice a rubbery?
Great! Drain as much water as you can
And set aside.
Now it's time to follow this plan:

Grab your sharpest knife and start chopping.
The ingredients that make kimchi the boss

are red pepper, green onions, lettuce, radish, garlic, and fish sauce.

I almost forgot there were more!

We need anchovies sauce, rice and seaweed water

In order to complete this chore.

Now, what's left to do

Is mix it all through.

Got that done?

Let's stuff that tasty mixture into the leaves-

Don't miss a single one.

Grab a jar and voila!
Fancy a salad? Eat it raw.
If not, it should refrigerate.
For authentic kimchi, 20 days you must wait.

Congratulations, my friends.
You are now a master of kimchi
You may embark on your own
And proclaim your talent with glee.
