Kimchi Ingredient
Use 90% Australian Ingredietns. The Kimchi cabbages grown using the Matilda seeds had similar features as the cabbages grown in the highlands (450m-750m above sea level, in cool climates) in South Korea. Unlike the watery and wasabi flavoured Yuki Cabbage, it contained a sweet, strong and crunchy flavour which we believed was the perfect ingredient to make the traditional Korean Kimchi.
We requested to graft the Matilda seed to the seed company in Australia and Korea. Then we got the grafted seed that was suitable to be regularly grown in Victoria, considering the factors of local climate and soil.

Boss' Favorite, Wellbeing kimchi

Crunchy Radish Kimchi
Radish kimchi, also known as "kkakdugi" in Korean cuisine, is a type of kimchi that features radishes as the main ingredient. The radishes are cut into cubes. Radish kimchi undergoes a fermentation process similar to other types of kimchi. The lactobacillus bacteria present in the environment naturally ferment the kimchi, which not only gives it a distinctive sourness but also enhances its probiotic content.
Tip: leave it at room temperture for a day if radish kimchi has no tangy flavor, which mean it still need time to be fermented.
