How long does it keep for? My husband bought two jars back in perhaps
March. One sat there half eaten. I tossed it and he didn't notice. I
would like to get rid of the other one as well since it would appear that he
won't eat it. I won't bother to ask him as he always says he will eat
something but then he rarely ever does.

Thing is, I think it thinks it is hard to come by because it was on Cape
Cod, but here with all the Asian people who live here, the stuff is
everywhere. I would like my fridge space back. Not that it takes up a lot
of space but still...

Thanks!

Years if unopened. If it isn't moldy it is edible. If opened it will last
years in the fridge. Not so long at room temp.

Food bank. Don't waste food.

They'll only take shelf stable foods from individuals. So that's a no go.
I have no problem wasting food like that. I'd rather have room in my fridge
for food that we will eat.

My wife likes her kim chee fresh and made like her mom used to make it. She won't eat it if it's all waterlogged and limp. Cucumber kim chee will stay edible for about 2 days, after which, it gets icky.

I use old kim chee for fried rice and it works great chopped up in kim chee burgers. Korean cooks will use old kim chee to make kim chee chigae - it would be a waste to use fresh kim chee.

Well this stuff came refrigerated in a jar and stinks to high heavens.

It's supposed to do that. If you're not going to make chigae, or burgers, or fried rice, you should just dump it. Koreans wouldn't eat old kim chee like that either.

Oh! Okay then. Most likely he forgot about it. He always buys things on
impulse then rarely eats or drinks them.

Yes, dumping it sounds easy. Just pick up the jar and throw it out on trash
day.

Yeah, sometimes in Korea, an apartment complex will have a kimchi
fridge in a stairwell or other area to keep the stink contained for
all.

Kimchi is often thought about in the same way pickles are - new dills,
half sours, full pickle, etc - except we're talking kimchi, of course.

There are also folks who like it fermented a good 2-3 years.

I often make my own, but there are a couple of brands that I will
happily buys, too.

That would be about a square foot.

Koreans will typically have a second refrigerator for stinky kim chee.
Some of them are purpose built and will cost some serious money. I
suspect that they're used as a status symbol.

My wife's family had a full size refrigerator in one of their bedrooms.
It was the nuttiest thing that I ever saw and it raised up one of my
eyebrows way up high - as I recall, it was the left one. This gave me
pause on the subject of starting the endeavor of courting their
daughter. As it goes, my concerns were right on the money but it was
none the less, a good move on my part. After all, you can't have honey
without bees and bees sometimes sting.

Why was it in the bedroom and what did they keep in it? Did they have a
regular one for the kitchen too?

The way I understand it, most Korean families will keep a small
refrigerator outside the home. My wife's family did just that but when
they got a new refrigerator for the kitchen, they kept the original one
for kim chee. It was too big to keep out on the lanai so it went into
the bedroom. They kept kim chee in there so it did not stink up the
other foods. Even the Koreans think it's some stinky stuff.

A couple of years ago, we fixed up the place for sale and the dang thing
was still in there after nearly 40 years. Of course, it had to go. A
stinky refrigerator in a bedroom is a certain deal killer - that's Real
Estate 101 right there.

Thanks Seems odd that they would keep the 'stinky' fridge in the bedroom
though

Nutty would be more like it. OTOH, they probably didn't have a choice
because I'm pretty sure that keeping a big refrigerator in the patio
would be a violation of the condo rules. That room was a spare bedroom
and my wife would call it "the sewing room."

That was today. Technically we are supposed to put it in the yard waste but
I can only just imagine how bad it smells so not gonna do that.

I know it doesn't take up much room but it's still annoying.

Ahhh so they weren't actually sleeping in it??? We have spare bedrooms we
use for other things too. In fact one spare bedroom here is used as a store
and my big chest freezer lives in it)

My wife's brothers would stay in the room when they flew over. The room wasn't bad smelling or anything. Just don't open up that door!

My wife likes the kim chee at the food court at the mall nearby. It is pretty good stuff. It's real Korean style. The stuff that's popular here is a milder Hawaii style kim chee but that's not like what her mom made. She complimented the owner on this and he said he makes up a batch daily and appoligised for the day's kim chee. They didn't have bok choy so he had to make it with just plain old head cabbage.

My wife, back in the day, had a spicy odor around her. It was quite intoxicating and alluring for me. It was only later that I found out it was the kim chee. Love is not only blind but evidently, has a poor sense of smell.

LOL!

You handled that masterfully, who else could deftly deploy Kimchee to
compliment their wife!

Bravo.

Her smell would intermingle with the sweet fragrance of the plumeria blossoms carried by the breeze through the open windows of the Sinclair Library at the University of Hawaii. The spicy sweet aroma would guide me gently but surely towards her cubical in the huge room, there to be greeted by her smiling face. What a grand time that was! These days, the smell reminds me of Korean bar girls. :-)

It sure was. When I first met her mother, she told me that I should get lost. This did not faze me in the least. I thought "so it's game on - alright!" :-)

She would have rather her daughter marry a nice Korean boy. Fat chance
of that happening if you don't live in Korea. After nearly 40 years, her
mother acknowledged that I was a good husband. More importantly, my wife
said I was a great help in taking care of her mother. Ah shucks, it was
no great effort on my part, you just do what you gotta do. :-)

My OCD friend's ex-girlfriend is obsessed with a Korean K-pop star and
follows him and his group throughout Japan and Korea. I'm expecting to
hear news of a Korean boy-group singer being gunned down by a crazy
American woman any day now. I love the symmetry of that.
