Kimchi Quesadilla Recipe By Tasty

Steps:

• Cut the Spam into small cubes. Chop the kimchi.
• Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the kimchi and sauté until reddish-brown in color and most of the liquid has evaporated, 4-5 minutes.
• Push the kimchi to the edges of the pan and add the Spam. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, until starting to crisp, then add the sweet corn and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until warmed through. Add the sesame oil, stir to combine, and cook for 1 minute longer, until the flavors have melded. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside.
• Place a tortilla in a clean medium skillet. Sprinkle ¼ cup mozzarella cheese over half of the tortilla. Add half of the kimchi and Spam mixture, top with another ¼ cup mozzarella, and fold the tortilla over. Turn the heat to medium and add 1 tablespoon of butter to the skillet. Fry the quesadilla on each side for 2-3 minutes, until golden and crispy and the cheese has melted. Remove from the pan and repeat with the remaining ingredients.

Steps:

• Cut the head of cabbage in half lengthwise and slice off the ends. Quarter lengthwise, then slice crosswise into 2-inch (5 cm) pieces.
• Place the cabbage and salt in a large bowl. Using your hands, massage the salt into the cabbage until it starts to soften a bit. Cover with a kitchen towel and let stand for 1-2 hours. Rinse the cabbage thoroughly under cold water, then let drain in a colander.
• Meanwhile, chop the green onions into 1-inch (2 cm) pieces.
• Peel the ginger and garlic.
• Cut the daikon radish into matchsticks.
• Combine the rice, water, garlic, ginger, and soy sauce in a mason jar or medium bowl. Use an immersion blender or standing blender to make a smooth paste. Mix in the sugar and gochugaru, starting with 1 tablespoon for a mild flavor and up to 5 tablespoons to make it spicier.
• Gently squeeze any remaining water from the cabbage and transfer to a large bowl, along with the green onions and daikon. Toss to combine.
• Add the seasoning paste to the bowl. Wearing gloves if you'd like to protect your hands from stings, stains, and smells, gently massage the paste into the vegetables until they are thoroughly coated.
• Pack the kimchi into a large jar, pressing down until the seasoning paste rises to cover the vegetables and leaving at least 1 inch (2 ½ cm) of space at the top. Seal the jar with the lid.
• Eat the kimchi right away or, to ferment, let the jar stand in a dark place at room temperature for 2-14 days. You may see bubbles inside and liquid may seep out of the jar; to be safe, place a bowl or plate under the jar to catch any overflow. Check the kimchi once a day. When it reaches your desired flavor, transfer the jar to the refrigerator. Eat right away, or let sit for another week or 2 for the flavors to deepen.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium-high heat, then cook kimchi, stirring occasionally, until edges are golden, about 6 minutes. Cool kimchi.
• Place 2 perilla leaves over one half of each tortilla and top with one fourth of kimchi, 1 tablespoon sesame seeds, and 1/2 cup of each cheese. Fold in half to enclose filling.
• Brush a 12-inch nonstick skillet or 2-burner nonstick griddle with oil and heat over medium heat until it just begins to smoke, then cook quesadillas, turning once, until golden and cheese is melted, about 4 min utes total. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a sauté pan over medium heat. Add the kimchi and cook, stirring, until caramelized and slightly charred, about 10 minutes.
• Add 1 tablespoon of the canola oil to a large nonstick pan or griddle over medium heat. Place one of the tortillas in the pan and sprinkle 1 cup of the cheese on one half of the tortilla. Add about a quarter of the caramelized kimchi, a quarter of the sesame or shiso leaves, and a quarter of the sesame seeds. Fold over to create a half-moon. Continue to cook until the bottom of the tortilla blisters like a Neapolitan pizza. Flip the quesadilla over and cook the second side until it reaches the same doneness. Transfer to a plate, cut into triangle-shaped pieces, and serve.
