oh man i wish my family would cook. i'm hispanic but i can't learn from any relatives to cook hispanic meals. so if you will or already have any, please teach your children!
@@sarahcaruana4867it refers to South America heritage. I've worked with immigrants from Mexico, Colombia Venezuela, and Ecuador and they refered themselves as Hispanic ("of Spain", or relating to Spain, which much of South America is heavily influenced by) and/or Latino (Latin America aka South America)
If you watch the video closely at the end the girl was holding the vegetable in the bowl and the grandma went to grab it and she was like let go of it and yanked it from her It was the yank and let go part for me the grand daughter just ignored it
@@frasermarino3403 for real I already hear it now then everything you do is wrong cause your not doing it there specific way All this gives me elderly vibes not just grandparents either most of them lmao
Why do y'all cut shit on the floor like dude we made tables for s reason thats not okay during a pandemic if you were white you would have been told to stop
I lived in Korea in 1978 in the little tiny village of Deagu. I had a wonderful Korean lady teach me to make kimchi old style original. I love kimchi and I taught my son to eat it when he was a baby. We both still eat it, as it is very healthy for you.❤
I love how y’all do it the traditional way on the floor and ppl always have negative stuff to say but forget them! This is y’all’s cultural way and I love it
No judgement at all, I appreciate that it's a different culture, im.just curious if there is a reason for doing it on the floor vs a counter. There seems to be enough counter space, is it about maneuvering the cabbage? They do seek pretty big and heavy. I'm just super curious, I don't mean to be disrespectful.
@@jacintaschneider4145 Honestly, there are multiple reasons. First, Korea traditionally has a floor culture - we used to (and some still do) sit, sleep, and eat on the floor with a low table, unlike western cultures eating on high tables with chairs. This is partly because the heating system of Korean homes during winter is “ondol,” which is a heating of the floor (even before electricity); hence, we don’t need shoes to keep our feet warm and the floor keeps us warm when we sit/lie down (whereas western cultures keep themselves elevated for warmth). Second, those bins are big, but they’re still on the smaller side. A lot of homes make a ridiculously huge amount of kimchi for the entire family, taking up half the space of maybe a terrace in a backyard. So.. usually the countertops are definitely not enough space 😂. Third, there’s a second part to making this kimchi. The countertop will be needed for prepping the ingredients for the next step. Hope this helps!
😢 thank goodness she's teaching you. When I was younger I watched my grandmother do this exact thing...never appreciated it until she passed away. I miss my grandmother.
Our elders are full of so much wonderful information. I love seeing you learning from her. Anyone who is lucky enough to have their parents, grandparents or any other older relatives in your life, should learn everything you can from them. They are a true treasure.
Love this, the most traditional part was the prepping on the floor. A lot of my Asian friends say their grandmas/ moms would prep big meals on the floor. Pretty cool.
Seeing her learn from her grandma is so awesome to see. I must admit see you guys working on the floor makes my back hurt. It makes sense though with working on the floor. You have more space to work with.
The majority of people complaining about them doing on the floor are the kind that wear their shoes in the house. Not that there’s anything wrong with that but they are not familiar with the level of floor cleanliness certain cultures have. I have 3 large dogs who are always running in and out of the house with all their hair. So even though I don’t allow outdoor shoes in the house my floor will never be clean enough for any type of cooking 😅
They don't actually keep their floors that clean, you are just trying to make excuses to rebuke the valid criticism they received. I don't care if they eat rotten vegetables off the floor, but you don't get to pretend it is magically cleaner than prepping everything on an elevated surface.
That’s one thing I wish my grandma was still here for. Showing me how to make our special dishes, there is RU-vid and a lot of cook books but it’s not like learning from your grandparents
I have been watching my Korean mom make Kimchi for 50 years I have always admired the hard work that goes into it. To sit in the kimchi squat that long is mind blowing🤯
I am a Korean who saw a video while passing by. I am very happy that many people are interested in Korea and enjoy Korean culture in many videos on my RU-vid algorithm these days. You make me proud of my country. Thank you.
I love that she is your grandma and still putting the effort into this!! Looks fantastic “full of love”. I actually want to learn how so thanks her please I have learned from the best!😊😊❤️
YOU KILLED THE SHORT! But the text of the subtitles is passing VERY fast. I had to go back and stop the video to get the subtitles. English is not my native language so... But I LOVED your grandmother making kimchi! Very cute. 🥰
Could you PLEASE show the salt she uses? I would like to make my own but I want to use the correct Korean salt. If you have the bag/box with the brand that would be great! PS I love your content. Please tell ur Halmi thank you🙏🏽
Unfortunately it isn’t just a course sea salt. The appropriate sea salt is directly from Korea and is specifically for KimChi brining. Its not a regular sea salt This was a question asked on Google: What is the best Salt to use for Kimchi? Do I have to use Korean sea salt? Can I use Himalayan salt for Kimchi? These are just some of the questions I am going to try to answer regarding salt and kimchi including the result of my experiment with different salts.
She really puts time into hers. Ive only seen cutting, coating with red stuff then fermenting in a container lol. LOVE your grandma. Shes the best. Pove watching yall ❤
Yay I've been waiting for her to make kimchi for a long time. Hey by the way can I use regular flour instead of rice flour cuz I don't have any ... to make the paste
@@kochenko3 I think it might also have to do with the fact, especially back in olden times, there was no kitchen or counter space big enough to accommodate the massive operation, and that way of preparing became the tradition.
@@cloudambientit's probably traditional cuz I think back in the days Korea didn't have counters or stuff so they did it on the floor, and the floors probably clean
@@nanyur3013 Seems like if the original poster was in my house while I was making dinner, that they'd tell me to stop standing at my counter while I chopped my veggies and sit my ass on the floor and do it there instead because it's "beautiful and more people should do it because it's 'cultured'". That is the dumbest thing I've ever heard.
I wish my grandmothers were still alive to learn from. All of them died when I was very young. We didn’t have phones to record video, and there are so many things I wish I could have learned. I still think about all the amazing things they made for us when we were little. I am glad you are taking the time to learn from her. I am sure she has volumes to teach. ❤
