This Grain-Free Kimchi Pancake Is a Twist on the Classic Korean Dish
I began a beautiful love affair with Korean food over the past year, partially because of my Korean roommate. I've had the Korean classics like jap-chae and bulgogi, but my roommate has shown me many other dishes that I have become obsessed with. One of these is the kimchi pancake.
I'm Japanese, so I have a natural affinity for foods of other Asian ethnicities. Growing up, my grandma made her own kimchi, so I've always loved it. Fermenting the cabbage gives it natural probiotics which are important for gut health.
But let me tell you, kimchi pancakes are the perfect combination of gut health and ultimate indulgence. After a few experiments, I have created a simple and spot-on replication of a traditional kimchi pancake without gluten or grains.
