KIMCHEE SEAWEED NOODLES SOUP

My colleague gave some kimchee the other day(all the way from Korea) and it has been sitting in the fridge for a number of days. since it is a pickle  it wont get spoilt easily.

Source from WIKIPEDIA ; Kimchi (Korean김치 Korean pronunciation: [kimtɕʰi]English pronunciation: /ˈkɪmi/), also spelled kimchee or gimchi, is a traditional fermented Korean side dish made of vegetables with a variety of seasonings. It is often described as "spicy" or "sour". [1][2][3] In traditional preparation Kimchi was often allowed to ferment underground in jars for months at a time.[4] It is Korea's national dish, and there are hundreds of varieties made with a main vegetable ingredient such as napa cabbageradishscallion, or cucumber.[5] Kimchi is also a main ingredient for many Korean dishes such as kimchi stew (김치찌개; kimchi jjigae), kimchi pancake (김치부침개; kimchijeon), kimchi soup (김칫국; kimchiguk), and kimchi fried rice (김치볶음밥; kimchi bokkeumbap).
