Slow Cooker Kimchi Soup is a warm bowl of easy comfort food hugs. It is spicy and sweet mixed with a spoonful of love. This is my easy recipe for a weeknight warm up.
This recipe holds a special place in my heart. The first time I tried kimchi ever, was the first time Tom and I hung out. We went to Korean BBQ in NYC’s Koreatown. The kimchi came in a small bowl at the beginning of our meal. I immediately fell in love. The ruby red cabbage tastes like Sriracha and honey dancing together. It is sooooo flavorful and I use it in as many recipes as possible.
Two of my other favorite ways to use kimchi is my:
NOTE: If you want to make this vegetarian just leave out the pork belly and use vegetable stock. It makes an amazing meatless Monday Dinner.
I really hope you love this as much as we do. The best part of the dish is how easy it is. Drop all the ingredients in the slow cooker, go to work, and come home to a hot happy comfort food dinner. Happy eating and I am always so grateful to cook with you!
