    Kimchi doesn't necessarily require radish. Why not just leave it out?

    Yes.... what are you looking for in a substitute? Do you eat the radish, normally? The radish greatly enhances and accelerates the "souring" of the kimchee. In that regard, I don't think there's anything that really works as a substitute. However, you can make a perfectly fine kimchee without it, it's just a little bit different.

Jicama. It has the same kind of crunch and taste is also subtle.

  • A substitute used in kimchi must also be safe to ferment in that process. Is your recommended substitute?

  • There is pickled jicama, so should be fine as kimchi.
