Kimchi recipe from acleanplate.com #aip #paleo #glutenfree

This is like the Korean version of sauerkraut, and I love, love, love it. It was easy to make and perfectly spicy-and-sour when I opened it up at day 7. You can throw in whatever veggies you want and even add shrimp or squid if you eat ’em. It’s great on burgers in a lettuce wrap or as a side to any meat or eggs.

  1. There is sugar in your kimchi. Is that allowed in aip?

    1. The sugar is food for the bacteria, just like in kombucha. So, yes!

  2. Rachel M. says:

    What size glass jar is needed?

    1. I used an old 64-ounce pickle jar but you can also divide it up between smaller jars.
