Vitamins in kimch



How much of the vitamins in kimchi can be preserved when kimchi is stored for a long time? An experiment carried out to adress to this question revealed an astonishing fact: the amount of vitamins in kimchi reaches its greatest when kimchi is fully fermented, more than when it is fresh.

The amount of vitamins B1 and B2 decreases a little just after kimchi is made than in the raw vegetables but increases to twice as much as the beginning after three weeks when it tastes the best. The amount of vitamin C reaches the top after two weeks of fermentation then begins to decrease a little.

It is very interesting result although it is not yet discovered how vitamins can form or compose during the process.
