Chef's Notes

Step 10

Substitutions: - Use lemon juice, orange juice, or apple cider vinegar in place of the lime juice. - Use pumpkin seeds or sunflower seeds in place of sesame seeds.

Step 11

Whole Grain Bread Substitutions: - Use thinly sliced sweet potato, eggplant, or summer squash as a bread substitute. Note that it may need slightly longer toasting than the bread. Or, try grilling it on the stovetop instead of toasting it.

Step 12

Storage: - Store the avocado kimchi mixture in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
