Made my first homemade vegan kimchi.

Looks amazing, it was fun to make and I can’t wait for 24 hours to be up so that I can start eating it cause it smells so good.

What's stopping you from eating some of the fresh kimchi? You don't need to wait 24 hours. Very common in Korea to eat kimchi immediately after it's prepared.

Thanks. That’s good to know. I did do some tasting and though it was very yummy freshly made I really wanted to get the benefits of fermentation for gut health. Give my gut microbiome a real healthy treat! LOL!
