kimchi juice
The red, sour and spicy liquid that collects in a jar of kimchi.
Kimchi juice comes with every jar of kimchi, so you can get it wherever kimchi is sold: at Asian grocers, in the chilled section of many supermarkets, and at organic shops. The longer the kimchi has fermented, the sourer and stronger the juice, so it is worth saving when you finish a jar.
Substitute:
Finely chopped kimchi with a little of its liquid is the best substitute. A mix of rice vinegar, gochugaru and a dash of fish sauce matches the sourness and heat, but not the fermented depth.
