If it was just a Buffet, have to believe you didn't get to experience the best of Kimchi either, still wasn't a bad experience! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well according to the little lady it is a Korean thing. But it was like sauerkraut to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sauerkraut is just another form of fermented cabbage, the Korean's tend to spice things up! Mine was definitely spicy. Still having lived in South Bend where they say the Polish population is second only to Warsaw, my favorite version of fermented cabbage is Polish sweet and sour cabbage! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love all "krauts". And thanks, you made me hungry for Polish sausage. But I will have to talk to Dad about the Kimchi. He spent a lot of time over in that part of the world due to Viet Nam. He will point me to who has the best in my area. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polish sausage is great but read my edit on the last page about my experience with real German sausage, Real German sausage is spectacular!!

That is just it. Where do I get real German sausage around here? I have been to Germany and it is fantastic. So I got to settle for the Polish stuff. Seeing as how I live close to South Bend and visit Chicago frequently. Damn, I just thought of something.......I need to check with the Amish. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was decent but not great, that being said with 1000's of recipes for Kimchi and my first experience, I can't comment on whether what I experienced was Good Kimchi, or Bad Kimchi. Still it was good enough that I will try again. I love Kimchi. I eat it and sauer kraut for the probiotics. I get my kimchi from and international Asain market. I say try a few different kinds if you can. Could have just been some bad kimchi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure I want to share some of the family secret recipes? Actually, since I am trying to limit carbs in my diet I'm actually eager to try a thought I had about flatbreads. My Norwegian relatives make Lefse with potatoes, I wonder how things would turn out if I substituted Cauliflower? I'll let you know, although I don't have a reference as I've never made traditional Lefse before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But looked it up and I think a cauliflower pizza crust recipe might be an option as a substitute. I have also had good luck using almond flour or tapioca flour as substitutes in recipes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've used both Almond flour and Soy flour before but don't think I have seen Tapioca locally. I know both soy and almond state on the package you should only substitute about a third of the wheat flour, how about tapioca? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steubenhoosier Posted February 7, 2019 Report Share Posted February 7, 2019 The original title of this thread was that the food was good... in this case, I’d say that it depends on the person. Living in Wisconsin for several years we met many people of Scandinavian descent, many of them Lutheran. I still haven’t figured out what the attraction was, but lutefisk meals, were big events. Lutefisk—cod soaked in lye, then deep fried. Maybe Badgervol has some experience with this but all I can say is that I couldn’t drink enough beer to compensate for the gawdawful taste 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know both soy and almond state on the package you should only substitute about a third of the wheat flour, how about tapioca? Generally a 1:1 ratio. Maybe 1.5:1 if making a gravy. It is very fine and more like regular flour where almond flour can be a bit mealy. Usually get mine out of a bulk bin at Kroger for 2.99lb I believe. I know Amazon has it if if none is available locally. Edited February 7, 2019 by mrflynn03 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beyond that my Scottish heritage has me wanting to experience Haggis! From what I've heard it is like Lutefisk, an acquired taste! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
