thats a perfect question for me I,m korean and kimchi soup is korean food. kimchi soup is this. add kimchi in water and boil the watter and kimchi together and it will be red.

It's Korean fermented cabbage in broth

It is rotted and fermented Cabbage.

it is korean i think it contains kimchi as well as other ingredients such as green onion, onion, tofu, pork, and seafood, although pork and seafood are generally not used in the same recipe.
Kimchi is a kind of vegitable with seasoning.

Kimchi is a spicy korean fermented cabbage. To make kimchi
soup, you simply add water to kimchi, bring to boil and serve it hot and spciy. The soup will comes out red. I add noodles or rice to make it a heartly Kimchi soup noodle or Kimchi soup rice. Try it!

It is kind of soup for korean people

While Kimchi ISN'T a soup.. I have MADE GREAT kimchi soup from kimchi I've had around the house too long!

Kimchi is a traditional Korean vegetable side dish. It is also spelled gimchi and kimchee. Kimchi is known as a banchan, or side dish in Korea. It is common, in Korean cuisine, to have many banchan served alongside a meal.
Kimchi is made by fermenting seasoned cabbage and other vegetables. In addition to being served as a side dish, kimchi is also served with rice. Furthermore, kimchi is sometimes used as an ingredient in dishes such as kimchi jjigae (a kind of stew) and kimchi bokkeumbap (kimchi fried rice).
Napa cabbage is generally the main ingredient in kimchi, and the dish is usually fermented in brine with garlic, scallions, and ground pepper. However, there are many variations including other vegetables and spices. Other forms of kimchi offer different kinds of flavors. As vegetables are a seasonal food, the many forms of kimchi were developed based on what was in season and on hand.
BUT.... In Atlanta at the Asian Food store, I've seen Kimchi onions, leeks, scallions etc etc.. and everyone I've tried so far have been great!
While MOST of the times it's eaten cold... (Heating changes the flavor and normally is NOT done)
My wife is from Indonesia and she thinks eating Cold foods wil give you colds or flus or sore throats and such...(laughs)
I always find a way to cook it for her is a dish.. and eat mine in the closet... cold!
YUMMMM!

Elwood: actually your wife is right.

Kimchi, the Korean pickles (fermented) composed of chili, cabbage, ginger, daikon raddish and other vegetables, is great by itself or added to other dishes.

I myself simply add half a cup of kimchi to instant ramen noodles for a dramatic change in taste and nutrients.

Cabbage that is fermented, has korean spices.

Too Far From home has it.
