Frequently asked questions

How do you store it?

• Always keep your kimchi or jangajji refrigerated, even before opening.

• After opening, make sure the pouch is sealed tightly to keep everything fresh.

• You’ll find a small gas absorbent sachet inside the pouch—this is food-safe and helps prevent the pouch from bloating during storage. Once you open it, you can remove the sachet if you prefer.

• If left out at room temperature for a while, don’t worry—just pop it back in the fridge. It will ferment faster, so expect a tangier taste.

How do you eat it?

• Honestly? On almost everything. Try it with eggs, rice, toast, pasta, sandwiches, wraps, grilled cheese, or even stirred into soups.

• Once opened: enjoy within 1 month.

• They don’t “go off”—they just get tangier over time. Always keep refrigerated.
