- Shredded cheese
- Chopped tomatoes
- Chopped kimchi
Homemade Kimchi
- 3 heads napa cabbage cored and cut into quarters lengthwise
- 3 heads garlic minced
- 1 bunch green onions cut into 2 inch pieces
- 1 ½ tablespoons monosodium glutamate MSG
- 2 teaspoons red pepper flakes or to taste
- ½ cup salt
Instructions
- Chop the onions
- Sauté the beef and onions together, drain and place in serving bowl
- Assemble the tacos with desired toppings
Kimchi Instructions- Cut the cabbage leaves into 2 inch long pieces. Spread 1/4 of the leaves into a large, non-metallic bowl and sprinkle with 1/4 of the salt. Repeat layering all of the cabbage has been salted.
- Let stand at room temperature for at least 2-3 hours, until a lot of liquid has been pulled from the leaves and the cabbage is tender. Rinse the cabbage in 2 or 3 changes of water. Drain the cabbage well, and return it to the mixing bowl.
- Sprinkle the cabbage with the minced garlic, green onions, MSG, and red pepper flakes. Season to taste with additional salt and toss until evenly combined. Pack the mixture into a gallon-sized glass jar. Cover the jar with wax paper and a loose fitting lid so the seal is not airtight.
- Allow the cabbage to ferment at room temperature until it reaches the desired degree of sourness. We recommend 2 to 4 days. Take the wax paper off the jar, seal it tight, and place in refrigerator.
