Kimchi Bloody Mary


This week's recipe was shared with us by The Spicy Hermit!


It is so hot out. And the tomatoes are everywhere, as you can tell from the tomato fest. How about a nice, cold kimchi Bloody Mary for beating the heat wave? Here’s a nice recipe from tasting table- If you don’t have soju, a nice clear vodka works very well.  ~ Eunice Chang, The Spicy Hermit



Recipe:


For the Bloody Mary
  • 4 cups tomato juice
  • 2 1/2 cups soju
  • 1/2 cup, plus 1 tablespoon kimchi brine
  • 1/2 cup lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon fish sauce
  • 1/2 tablespoon Tabasco, or your favorite hot sauce
  • 1/2 tablespoon prepared horseradish
  • 1/4 teaspoon celery salt
  • 1/24 teaspoon wasabi powder
  • Ice


For the Garnish
  • castelvetrano olives
  • pickled cocktail onions
  • pickled ramps
  • cucumber kimchi
  • cabbage kimchi
  • lime wedges
  • togarashi salt


Instructions
  • In a large pitcher, stir together all of the Bloody Mary ingredients until well chilled, then divide between ice-filled glasses. Garnish each glass with a skewer containing an olive, pickled onion, pickled ramp and cucumber kimchi. Float a pinch of cabbage kimchi and a lime wedge next to the skewer, garnish with togarashi salt then serve.


Enjoy!

Ninth Street Bakery
About Ninth Street Bakery: Determined to change the bread landscape, Ninth Street Bakery was founded by two brothers in 1981 fresh from a stint baking at the Tassajara Zen Center with monk Ed Espe Brown. They brought with them recipes for wholegrain goodness and a mind for doing good works in Durham. Known by many for its seeded sliced pan loaves, NSB now has crusty artisan bread products that burst with the flavors of natural levain, and flaky pastries that slow rise to perfection. Helmed by baker Ari Berenbaum since 2013, NSB sits at Five Points in Durham, an anchor business in an ever-changing city. We have a full service café, as well as a robust wholesale program that covers the Triad from Greensboro to Raleigh, Durham to Chapel Hill and Carrboro. We give back to the community via our Bakery- and donor-supported Durham Neighbors program, an in-house experiment in Universal Basic Income whereby we Cashapp 100+ low-income local families every month $50 which goes to much-needed groceries, utility bills, or diapers. We are psyched to be now an official member of the Durham Farmer’s Market, joining an illustrious crew of artisans and purveyors who are dedicated to local, independent, small business, and Southern gastronomical culture. You can follow us at Instagram.com/ninthstreetbakery or read Ari’s musings on bread and Durham at blog.ninthstbakery.com.
