    What exactly is kimchi?

    Kimchi is one of those super foods that’s incredibly good for you! Made of salted, fermented vegetables, kimchi is loaded with probiotics (good for your gut!). It’s no wonder it’s a staple of Korean foods. I used Nasoya Kimchi for this recipe post, but there are many options available in the refrigerated section of your grocery store.

    How to make spicy kimchi slaw:

    The spicy kimchi slaw could not be any easier to make! Just a few steps to a terrific hot dog topping!

    • Chop up 1 cup of store-bought kimchi.
    • Slice the green onions.
    • In a mixing bowl, combine the kimchi with shredded carrots, green onions, and cilantro.
    • Let sit for about 15 minutes to incorporate all the flavors.

    I used Trader Joe's Organic Grass-Fed Uncured Beef Hot Dogs for my recipe (because I hate all of the nitrates and yucky stuff that's in your typical hot dog). Made these on my stove-top grill pan and they were grilled to perfection!

    TIPS & TRICKS for making these hot dogs with kimchi slaw

    • I took the easy way out and used store-bought kimchi. But feel free to make your own kimchi from scratch!
    • I'm a stickler for "real" food, so I used organic, all-beef hot dogs without nitrates. Really bad for you! But, who am I to judge?
    • I used my stove-top grill pan to make these dogs, but of course, the outdoor grill is a fantastic option!
    • I made a quick aioli using mayo and Sriracha sauce to add on top for an extra kick (optional). But use whatever extra condiments you'd like (or not!).
