I just made kimchi for the first time using the shortcut recipe from gaming_foodie on instagram.

Very dark… Shouldn’t it be brighter red?

Something ain’t right here but at least you made the effort.

Doesn’t look like a typical kimchi – but you’ve got everything you need here for a decent ferment so if it tastes nice then that’s all that matters!

Did you make sure to squeeze out ALL the water after salting the cabbage? What was the consistency of the paste? was it thick or runny? There shouldn’t be this much liquid in a freshly-made kimchi.
EDIT: May I recommend a different recipe of [quick kimchi](https://seonkyounglongest.com/quick-kimchi/)? When they ask for “vegan fish sauce” you can just put in regular Korean fish sauce.
