See where to buy

The kimchi that started it all. We make it with Norwegian white cabbage instead of napa cabbage, because organic white cabbage is easy to get here. That is why it is called Norwegian kimchi.

It is mostly cabbage and carrot, seasoned with chilli, ginger, garlic and a little spring onion or leek, depending on what is available organic. It is crisp and tangy.

How we use it

We call it the all-rounder. Stir it into mayonnaise for coleslaw on your burger, add a spoonful to a salad, or serve it with chicken, meat and fish. It is especially good in sushi.

Recipe: Onigiri with kimchi and tuna

Good to know

Organic and Debio certified. Fermented for fourteen days, with no added sugar or vinegar, and not heat treated. A chilled product, keep at 0 to 6 °C.

Tip: it is good with a little fat alongside, such as melted butter, olive oil, sour cream or mayonnaise. It brings out the flavour.
