Kimchi Slaw

By: The Local Palate
Kimchi Slaw by Heirloom BBQ

Kimchi and pork are a classic pairing in Korea, so chefs Jiyeon Lee and Cody Taylor of Heirloom BBQ in Atlanta recommend piling this on a pulled pork sandwich. This preparation is a “fresh” slaw, meaning that the kimchi base is cold fermented one week in advance, and then mixed with the fresh chopped vegetables.
