- This article refers to the traditional Korean dish. For the family of scholars known as Kimchi, Qimchi and Kimhi, see the article on Qimchi.
Kimchi, also known as gimchi or kimchee is a traditional Korean dish of fermented chili peppers and vegetables, usually based on Chinese cabbage. The word's archaic pronunciation was chim-chae (Hangul: 침채; Hanja: 沈菜), meaning "steeped/submerged vegetable". However, since the pronunciation's drastic change, kimchi is no longer associated with its original Hanja (Lee 2000).
In Korea, kimchi is served with most regular meals but is also used as an ingredient in cooking, including kimchi jjigae (kimchi soup), kimchi bokkeumbap (kimchi fried rice), and other dishes.
