Tazaki Foods, owner of the Japanese food brand Yutaka, is to launch Korean “superfood” kimchi in the UK.
Kimchi, a blend of cabbage and spices, is touted for its health benefits, containing fibre, vitamins and minerals. It has 13 calories per 100g.
According to a statement from Tazaki Foods, until now the product has only been available in the UK through speciality retailers.
Tazaki Foods claims its kimchi product is 100% natural, containing fermented cabbage with chilli, garlic, radish, carrot, salt and ginger. It can be consumed as either a side dish or used in cooking as an ingredient.
The kimchi from Tazaki Foods will initially be launched in Sainsbury’s stores from next month. A 215g jar will have an RSP of between GBP3-4 (US$4.32 to US$5.77).
