Crushing on (this) Kimchi

Have you ever just randomly tried something and got taken aback by how unexpectedly awesome it is? I never really cared about kimchi, so when this one came my way I had zero expectations.

But, after just one bite I was smitten!

“It's bubbly! It literally feels alive…like effervescent or something!?”

I was both intrigued and concerned. Has this gone wrong or is it just the fermentation process done right? I had no idea but I fell into the freshness, texture & perfectly balanced spiciness. It was like no kimchi I’d come across before. She made me want to do all sorts of things, like make *loaded kimchi fries and use her as a side to just about anything.

She’s hot, local, vegan and consistently unavailable so naturally, I am crushing…

I see her around often because GOODBIGNICE produces in Montreal and distributes to local shops near me.

Maybe it makes me weird, but I kind of like that she's often missing when I want her, it makes it that much more special when our timing aligns…So keep your eyes open for her, she’s special and worth the wait.! I promise <3

* I made the kimchi fries without beef & used edamame instead ;)
