Yeolmu-kimchi (Korean: 열무김치) or young summer radish kimchi is one of the many types of kimchi, a popular banchan (Korean side dish). Although the yeolmu (young summer radish) has a small and thin taproot that does not have much use, its thick and abundant green leaves are constantly used throughout spring and summer to make yeolmu-kimchi. Yeolmu-kimchi is popular in the summer and is often eaten with cold noodles.
