泡菜汤/Kimchi Jigae/김치찌개

泡菜汤，韩文的发音为 “ Kimchi Jigae", 在韩国是家户喻晓的，几乎是人人对它爱不释手的家常便饭。泡菜汤的主要材料是发酵已久的泡菜，再随个人的喜爱加上猪肉，香肠，豆腐等配料。刚做成的泡菜是不用来煮泡菜汤的，发酵越久的泡菜，所含的酵母菌就越多。新鲜的泡菜是煮不出来那香醇的味道。。。。
"Jigae" is a Korean dish similar to a Western stew. Kimchi Jigae is often cooked in Korean homes using older,more fermented kimchi, creating a much stronger taste and containing higher amounts of  bacteria as found in yogurt. The stew is said to be more flavorful if prepared with older kimchi, while fresh kimchi may not bring out a full and rich flavor. Kimchi is the most important  ingredient and other ingredients ,such as pork,sausage,tuna,tofu, it depends on personal preferences.
