I am closing my Foodie Film Festival with another classic from my archives. Kimchi. Voting (finally, finally, finally) begins in the Project Food Blog video round on Monday and my entire film festival was designed to keep you interested in food videos during the down time between last challenge and the voting on this challenge.
Today I have the Korean staple kimchi. As this video, hopefully, proves– there is nothing too difficult about making kimchi. It may have an exotic allure, but it comes together quickly and I was really impressed with how well mine turned out!
Like I said this is a re-run. This is not my entry in this competition. Sippity Sup’s video entry for Project Food Blog can be seen here. I hope you will watch it and also hope you take the time to view as many of the 47 other video entries as you can. As I am sure the contestants will attest, videos can be a lot of work. A lot of fun, but a lot of work. All that work deserves your support and encouragement. So watch and enjoy every single one. Offer your thoughts. Take the time to vote for ALL the videos you like best. Because, no matter how the voting goes I am hoping some of these bloggers will be excited and empowered to start adding more video to their blogs– making us all winners.
Dissolve in a bowl 1‑cup salt in enough water to cover cabbage quarters. Add cabbage to bowl and set aside 3–4 hours.
Combine garlic, ginger, and fish sauce in a blender or mini food processor and puree
In a large bowl combine radish, green onion, greens, garlic puree, chili powder, the remaining tbsp salt, and sugar. Toss gently and set aside until cabbage is ready.
Remove cabbage from water and shake or squeeze out excess water. Stuff the radish mixture between each cabbage leaf. Work form the large outside leaves in. When all the cabbage is stuffed place then into a bowl and press them down firmly.
Let in marinate in the refrigerator 2–3 days the chop into 2‑inch chunks and mix well. The kimchi is ready to eat but will improve with some fermentation. After 3 weeks the remaining kimchi should not be eaten raw, but used as an ingredient in hot pots, dumplings, or fried rice.
SERIOUS FUN FOOD

My daughter & I just watched your video. She giggled the whole time. Great editing — love the fast motion. Looks like you had a very eco friendly meal for you and your pup.
I learned something that I didn’t know that you can use real peanuts in the shell for packing material. I’m stashing that idea in my brain for future use. Your video was too funny, especially with your dog. What did your dog eat at the picnic?

What a great video…and love the peanuts!
that I’m not one of those folks who run the risk of a seizure when exposed to fast moving objects or strobe lights, as your video sure would have set me twitching.…maybe you ought to put a disclaimer notice on it just in case? Glad to see you’ve advanced, and love your take on the picnic, especially the peanuts and beer! Off to vote for more SUP! — S
Great job on this challenge Greg, I loved how you put it all together. I learned, I laughed, and I wished I was right there enjoying that yummy picnic.
What a great video–I worried about all the cactus needles, though. I have to say, I would follow you anywhere, though, if you were packing the picnic. Miss you guys. Much love. Marianne
The FF part was great, so quick and easy 🙂 LOL! Wonderful picnic!
Wilson (my boston) and I got pooped watching!

Greg,
I loved the video! The music and the fast forward motion reminded me of a silent picture and made me smile. Did you remember your picnic blanket?
I am carrying it!
So this is how you rebel against getting asked to lead a writing discussion at fbzfest, eh?:) a video that speaks volumes- loves it. Fun fun take- now time for another video, better plan it since you’ll be making it. xxx, l
