Video: How a Korean Great-Grandmother Makes Kimchi

"Since I have a big family, I've made kimchi so many times. I must have made it more than 10,000 times," says Yu Um Chon in the beginning of this video from Cool Hunting. She demonstrates how to make cabbage kimchi by mixing together radish, hot pepper, salted shrimp, garlic, ginger, scallions, fish sauce, and sugar, and layering the mix with cabbage leaves (she adds artificial sweetener to cut down on sliminess). Watch the video after the jump.
