Kimchi stew (known in Korean as kimchi jjigae) holds a special place in our hearts, especially during the colder months. As the temperature starts to dip, there's nothing quite as comforting as this vibrant, flavorful soup. With the help of the microwave, you can savor a comforting meal in minutes.
All of Anyday’s recipes are tested (and retested!) in many different microwave and home kitchens to make sure they work—, and work well. Unless specified otherwise, all recipes should be cooked at full power.
