FAQ
Twins Kimchi pieces are too big. Why is that?
Twins Kimchi uses only the best A +++ grade Nappa grown in the United States. (If you chop it a little, the cabbage will soften and it will not taste as it is fermented.) You can feel the crispy feeling of thick and fresh cabbage until you eat it.
Keep kimchi refrigerated = to control fermentation.
If you leave a jar of our kimchi in room temperature, it accelerates the ripening process while refrigeration slows the fermentation of kimchi. Similar to the way a fine cheese ages, it is a handcrafted food that is brimming with naturally occurring bacteria cultures in an active fermentation state.
What is the shelf life of Twins Kimchi? How long will it last in the refrigerator?
Kimchi is alive and will continue to change over time. Temperature and exposure to oxygen impact the flavor and fermentation of kimchi much like wine or cheese. Our product is delivered after one week of fermentation where it can be enjoyed for its fresh and vibrant flavors. As the kimchi matures, it will take on unique and distinct taste profiles of tangy notes while the spice mellows and develops into deeper, earthier characteristics. Your kimchi will continue to age in your refrigerator and will be delicious for up to 12 months or even longer as long as you keep in cool temperature and away from oxygen.
