Tips

1. Do not pour the boiled kimchi water into the vegetables if it is too hot. It will soften the vegetables. Cool to warm water.
2. Salting it will make the dish more delicious. Friends who like spicy food can cut the peppers or use dried peppers.
3. This dish is relatively light. Those who like sweeter or sour food may increase the portion appropriately.
4. There is no need to boil too much kimchi water, just enough to soak the vegetable noodles.
5. This dish is not a pickle or sauerkraut, so it is not salty and does not have the sour taste of sauerkraut. It only has a light sweet and sour taste, which is refreshing and appetizing.
