Q4. Can you make kimchi without shrimp paste?
When most people think of kimchi, they think of the traditional Korean dish that is made with fermented cabbage and a variety of other vegetables. However, many people don't realize that kimchi can be made without any shrimp paste. Although shrimp paste is a key ingredient in many kimchi recipes, it is not necessary for the fermentation process. In fact, there are many delicious vegetarian and vegan kimchi recipes that do not include shrimp paste. If you want to make kimchi without shrimp paste, you should keep a few things in mind. First, you will need to use different fermentation starters, such as kefir or yogurt. Second, you may need to adjust the ratio of vegetables to ensure that the kimchi has the right amount of crunchiness. Finally, remember that kimchi without shrimp paste will have a slightly different flavor than traditional kimchi. However, if made correctly, it can be just as delicious.
