My kimchi never gets moldy with this simple salt trick

Just a pinch more salt in the paste keeps mold off... and the flavor's still good.

My last batch of kimchi went two months without a hint of fuzz. That extra salt in the paste really does make a difference for shelf life. It stayed plenty tangy and crunchy the whole time too.

Wish my last batch held up that well, man.

@nguyen.wesley, that extra salt in the paste you mentioned really seems to stop mold. Salt keeps unwanted germs from growing while the kimchi ferments. How do you figure out the right salt amount so it still tastes good and stays crunchy?
