In Korea, Kimchi is a commonly eaten side dish made from fermented and salted vegetables including napa cabbage and Korean radish, Gochugaru or Korean chilli powder, garlic, spring onions, ginger, and jeotgal translated as salted fish, etc. Various soups and stews contain kimchi as a key ingredient to enhance the taste of the dish. It is served as a side dish with practically all Korean meals since it is a staple item in Korean cooking. This favourite side dish has a wide range of flavours that are achieved depending on how it is made, stored, and prepared, making it both ambiguous and quite distinct.
Kimchi is available in almost 200 different varieties. In the majority of Korean family homes and restaurants, Kimchi is usually served as a typical side dish. Kimchi can be consumed on its own, with white or brown rice, or in recipes for other traditional Korean foods like porridge, soup, and rice cakes. Moreover, kimchi serves as the foundation for a variety of foods, including kimchi soup, kimchi fried rice, kimchi stew, and kimchi pancake.
The high popularity of kimchi in Korea, as well as in other countries around the world and its incorporation in various global cuisine, will spur growth for the global market during the projection period.
Kimchi is one of Korea's most essential dishes and is consumed in high quantities. According to IMF data, 95 per cent of Koreans consume kimchi every day, amounting to 2 million tonnes yearly, and it is a staple at every meal. According to the Ministry of Agriculture, Food, and Rural Affairs, the total amount of kimchi provided in the nation in 2019 was 1.9 million tonnes, including 306,000 tonnes that were imported. Outside of Korea, kimchi has recently become more and more popular, and you can't go very far in a big city without seeing the dish marketed, either on its own or added to rice, soup, or pancakes for a special touch and a chef's trademark. According to data from the Ministry of Agriculture, Food, and Rural Affairs, outbound exports of kimchi reached a record US$159.9 million in 2021, leading to a trade surplus of US$19.2 million in the industry. In the last five years, kimchi exports have grown 18 per cent annually on average, and 89 nations will import kimchi in 2021, up from 61 in 2011. According to experts, the Korean Wave created by K-pop and TV dramas has converted overseas admirers into enthusiastic buyers of South Korean goods such as this traditional side dish.
Since kimchi has become more widely consumed across the world, it has been integrated into many regional cuisines. It can be transformed into Japanese kimchi in order to go with Japanese sushi. Kimchi is traditionally eaten with Chinese dumplings in China. On a hamburger in America, kimchi takes the role of pickles. While kimchi is still regarded as a Korean delicacy, it can go well with any dish, demonstrating a significant capacity for adapting to new cultures.
Health benefits associated with the consumption of kimchi will also support the growth of the global market
Kimchi can provide significant health advantages because of its vitamins, minerals, and antioxidant content. Choline, a naturally occurring substance found in kimchi, is essential for sustaining your cells, muscles, neurological system, and even your mood. Choline is essential for keeping your memory sharp. Vitamin K, which aids in blood clotting and prevents brittle bones, is also abundant in kimchi. Kimchi is also beneficial for improving digestive health, lowering the risk of cardiovascular diseases, reducing the risk of cancer and supporting immunity. Therefore the demand for kimchi has been increasing due to its health benefits which are driving the market growth.
