| - In case you're not into kimchi, let me tell you why you should be. In addition to being tasty and being a great side with rice and pretty much any savory dish, it is one of the healthiest foods you can get. It is a vegetable probiotic food that develops its characteristic tang through the action of healthy lactobacilli, and its other major ingredients are cancer-fighting cruciferous vegetables and other health and favor boosters such as garlic, ginger, and red pepper. So where should you go to get this Korean superfood? I go for the gold ... I choose from the several varieties made by Seoul Market. Really good stuff, and really good for you. While you're there, you can get many other Korean staples - preserved and frozen foods, noodles, sweets, banchan, etc. And here too, you may find some tchotchkes and other Asian merchandise which can make for pretty unique gifts.
