What sauerkraut is to Germans, kimchi is to Koreans. Behind it are fermented hot and sour vegetables, mostly white cabbage, which are served with almost every dish in the Asian country. In Germany, kimchi is one of the discoveries of recent years. Because it is a healthy superfood that is full of vitamins and fiber.
The recipe that the founders behind the “Mochi” restaurant in Vienna developed shows that kimchi can do more than just be a spicy side dish. They simply grilled the cabbage. This gives the herb an unusually crunchy consistency. The sweetness of apples and the spiciness of radishes give the salad additional freshness – the perfect starter.
