  • Cut the dried squid into about 2-inch long thin strips. Soak in water until slightly softened if very dry and hard, but this is generally not necessary.DSC 2702 e1520280012826 - Pa Kimchi (Green Onion Kimchi)
  • In a large bowl, gently rub the seasoning mixture all over the green onions and the optional squid to evenly coat them.DSC 2550 e1520223309907 - Pa Kimchi (Green Onion Kimchi)
  • Hold a couple of green onions together, and fold them before arranging in an airtight container to store. Another option is to tie them together by wrapping the other end of the green onion around the white part, making a circle in the middle, and then running the leafy part through the circle.DSC 2675 e1520223265381 - Pa Kimchi (Green Onion Kimchi)
  • Keep it at room temperature for a day, and then refrigerate. Pa kimchi can be eaten right away, but the flavor develops as it ferments over 2 to 3 weeks in the fridge. Run a knife (or a pair of kitchen scissors) through the folded or tied green onions a couple of times to serve.
