1 head Napa cabbage, finely shredded
4 green onions, thinly sliced
1/4 cup rice wine vinegar

4 cloves garlic, chopped
1/4 cup red chili flakes, plus more to taste
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 cup vegetable oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper

To YOU -Null, Null
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

WHY ARE YOU SO CRITICAL AND ARGUMENTATIVE?! Get over it!!! Have you not noticed that EVERY dish can be interpreted... differently to make it unique? You should be watching The Next Iron Chef....Every single show they are told to reinvent a classic (that INCLUDES dishes from other nationalities) ....THIS IS WHAT BOBBY HAS DONE...So get off your high horse (you are not a paid food critic for Food Network) and appreciate a different and original dish....Read more

ohh that's wrong...
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

Bobby Flay should really research his ethnic foods before he tries to pass something like this off as "Kimchi". Kimchi has... fish sauce in it, not oil or soy sauce or vinegar in it. The sour taste comes from fermentation, not pickling. This is offensive at most. Traditional kimchi is not even that difficult to make (I should know, I'm half!) and making it the traditional way is much more rewarding, delicious and HEALTHY than this version is! Read more

Flay is taking liberties by using kimchee in quotes. if you want real kimchee, don't try this. but if you want a cabbage... salad with a spicy vinaigrette, you have found your recipe. Read more

Not respecting the traditional korean food
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

Hi. I believe I might be the first korean to actually write a review about this recipe. The title of bobby flay's meal should... be called "My recipe of kimchi salad," instead of "kimchi salad." Kimchi is a "traditional" food in Korea and Bobby Flay, not even mentioning the "original" recipe to make Kimchi, made it seem as if Kimchi was a food that could be made in a simple way. Many traditional foods, such as bibimbap, is very easy to make, but that does not mean that every food in korea has a simple recipe. Kimchi has a long history and a food that is respected by many chefs around the world. I am very disappointed to see how kimchi was made in the wrong way, and even more disappointed to see how bobby flay did not even mention the traditional way to make Kimchi.Read more

This is easy way to make a kimchi.
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I know there is other way to make a kimchi. Even some Korean ladies can't accomplish that task because it is time consume... and difficult for beginner. I couldn't do it for a long time. This is an easy way to make a kimchi and time to time I make it this way. However, it is little bit different. Instead of put soy sauce, I put salt on the cabbage and leave it for about 30 minutes. Then you squeeze out the water from cabbage and mixed in all other ingredients except soy sauce. You don't even have to wait for two - three days to eat. You can just eat after you mixed all the ingredients. Read more
