"Pickle, formerly known as Peng, refers to vegetables fermented for long-term storage. Generally speaking, as long as the fiber rich vegetables or fruits can be made into pickles. In the book of songs, the earliest collection of poems in China, there is a poem that "Zhongtian has Lu, battlefield has melon, peeling is Potamogeton crispus, offering to the emperor". According to the interpretation of Shuowen Jiezi by Xu Shen of Han Dynasty, "Potamogeton crispus is also pickled.". It is a kind of fermented food with vegetables as main raw materials and various fruits, seafood and meat as ingredients. It is mainly composed of lactic acid bacteria, rich in vitamins, calcium, phosphorus and other inorganic substances and minerals, as well as more than ten kinds of amino acids needed by human body. Korean kimchi has all kinds of flavors. It can be served with rice and wine. It is easy to digest and tastes good.

By the 16th century, pepper was widely used in pickles. There are more than 200 kinds of Korean kimchi, and what I do is just one of them. All kinds of vegetables can be pickled, and even fruits, fish, meat can be pickled into various styles of pickles.
