  1. Hi Chef, this is Andy. Rin and I are sou chefs tomorrow and you mention making 1/4 recipe of the daikon and carrot salad,that is the same thing as the sliced daikon salad, correct? Also, we are supposed to setup the kimchi plating station, what are the components of the kimchi plate, or is that something you will discuss with Rin and I tomorrow in class?

    1. You are correct on the salad, we only need to make enough for you to practice it and for us to have with family meal. The Kimchi plate will consist of your salad and 3 kimchis made last block by my previous group. It's easier to explain in person and very easy, it shouldn't take more than 15 minutes to set up.

  2. Hi Chef,
    For the daikon radish kimchi, should I use 3# daikon plus the 8oz called for in the vegetable kimchi recipe?
    Also, how would you like the daikon cut?
    For the pork-am I trimmining, boning, tying and brining the pork butt, or am I also cutting it into the smaller 3" diameter roasts before brining it?
    Thanks for your time,
    Kat

    1. You may leave the 8 oz. of daikon out of the daikon kim chi, it's an aromatic for most other kimchis, though. I will show you how to cut the daikon, just weigh and peel them.
      Pork - you will receive 1 bone in pork butt to fabricate. Remove bone and cut into 3 or 4 small roasts. Tying is helpful t retain shape. I can coach you on all of that. If you as me in advance of making the brine, I will give you a short-cut.

  4. Hi Chef,
    I was wondering how early/what time I should plan to cook the kimchi pancakes, and once they are cooked, should they be held in a hotel pan lined with a clean towel and held warm in the steam table?
    Thanks,
    Kat
