While talking to my mom this week, she mentioned a current addiction to “all things-kimchi”...naturally she mentioned this recipe for kimchi potato salad.
Since it’s starting to feel a lot like summer these days, easy picnic dishes are becoming a menu front runner. Enter potato salad with a twist.
This recipe is made with spicy kimchi and gochugaru, but depending on your spice-level preference you can use mild kimchi and/or leave out the gochugaru.
This salad needs times for the flavors to meld, it’s best made at least 2 hours prior to serving, or even overnight.
