Kim is a founder of Kim&Chi, who makes authentic Korean kimchi and condiments. Her mission is to educate people with the proper kimchi. She organises workshops where people can learn how to make, ferment and enjoy kimchi as well as experience Korean food and culture.
Story of Kim&ChiThe journey for proper kimchi began when Mieun Kim moved to London and met Hujong Chi. Kim realised the kimchi there was neither fresh nor authentic; the kimchi had either travelled long distances from Korea or just didn’t taste like the kimchi back home.
Kim and Chi decided to make their own and so they travelled home to Seoul to learn the delicate skills from Kim’s mother, an expert in making traditional kimchi who loves to share her knowledge and pass on her experience.
Kim and Chi spent the following months in London refining the taste. After just under a hundred batches, they finally had the kimchi that they were looking for. Today Kim and Chi are proud to share the homely taste of their kimchi.
