What is Kimchi?
A pretty sizable portion of my favorite things are fermented. Sauerkraut on a Hebrew National hot dog, soul-warming miso soup, and that ice cold beer at the end of a long day are all things made possible by that holiest of metabolic processes. And in my mind, there’s no other food that deserves the fermented crown more than kimchi.
In the states, people tend to think of kimchi solely as the Korean pickled cabbage that has grown exponentially in popularity over the past couple of decades. However, kimchi is much much more than that. To get a full rundown of all things kimchi I spoke to Hyunjoo Albrecht, the founder and head chef behind Sinto Gourmet, the makers of one of our favorite brands of store-bought kimchi.
So what is kimchi?
Kimchi should be thought of more as a method than a singular dish. Hyunjoo describes it succinctly as “a very traditional, fermented vegetable originating in Korea that is fermented with salt as well as other seasonings.” She also told me that it’s the way Korean people have been preserving vegetables for centuries. Traditionally, the salted veg would be placed in earthenware pots and buried to keep cool during summer months and to keep from freezing in the winter. Today kimchi is kept in the fridge. (When kept at room temperature, the fermentation can occur too quickly and it will spoil.)

Amish Beef and Noodles
One of my earliest “foodie” memories from childhood has to do with people coming back from the Amish country in southern New York State, near the Pennsylvania border, with all sorts of amazing pies, breads, and other baked goods. It was always a treat to enjoy whatever freshly made goodness they were sharing, but had I known about these beef noodles, I would have made a special request for their next road trip.
As I touched on in the video, every once in a while we should make a dish like this, not just to enjoy some very delicious, classic American comfort food, but also as a reminder that we don’t always need a long list of ingredients to create an amazing bowl of food. This humble beef and noodles recipe is so simple, it’s complex, and I really do hope you give it a try soon. Enjoy!

14 Types of Pasta Sauce Everyone Needs to Know
This list of pasta sauces spans the Atlantic Ocean, from Italy and France to the United States. It includes only the most popular sauces to pair with noodles, so no pizza sauce here. The differences between some types of pasta sauce are subtle; for example, spicy amatriciana sauce is similar to arrabbiata, but with the addition of cured pork. Other types of sauce couldn’t be more different.
No matter what’s on the menu, these sauces pair well with homemade pasta and a hunk of warm bread. It never hurts to round out the meal with the right type of wine, too!

Italian Pasta Bake
Total Time

We love freezer-friendly meals that can be made in advance, especially when they use simple ingredients that are easy to put together. While many make-ahead meals fit the bill, the great thing about baked pastas like this one is that they have the great flavors of your favorite Italian recipes, but only take a fraction of the time to make. No need to simmer a bolognese sauce for hours on end.
This Italian pasta bake recipe calls for ground beef, pasta shells, canned tomatoes and a few other ingredients, but can be easily swapped out to customize the dish. No matter if you prepare it for a weeknight dinner, potluck or contribution to a meal train, this pasta casserole recipe should be penciled into your meal plan ASAP.
Ingredients for Pasta Bake
- Ground beef: We’d recommend using lean ground beef in this recipe. Since ground beef is such a versatile ingredient, it’s always great to have some on hand.
- Spaghetti sauce: Use your favorite spaghetti sauce in this recipe. If you don’t have one, try one of our Test Kitchen’s favorite jarred pasta sauce brands. Or, if you have the time, you could always make marinara sauce from scratch.
- Mushrooms: This recipe calls for canned mushrooms, but if you prefer to use fresh, sauté them first in a little olive oil until they are lightly browned. Doing so both concentrates the savory flavor of the ‘shrooms, and also helps to remove any excess moisture.
- Pasta shells: Use medium-sized shells (like mezzo conchiglie) for this recipe. The scooped shape of the shells makes a perfect nest for the meat, sauce and cheese, making each bite flavorful. Tube-shaped pasta shapes such as ziti, penne or rigatoni would also work well in this recipe.
- Cheese: You can’t have a pasta bake without cheese. This recipe uses two Italian regulars: provolone and mozzarella. Pre-packaged shredded cheese is just fine to use, but for the best flavor and even melting, shred the cheese yourself. Pre-packaged shredded cheeses have cellulose, which prevents the cheese from clumping together in the bag. If you choose to shred the cheese yourself, make sure to grab a low-moisture brick of mozzarella rather than fresh mozza.

Our 100 Most-Popular Recipes Of All Time, According To Delish Readers (AKA You!)
Few people really understand how it started. There were five of us in the corner of a very corporate floor at the Hearst Tower in NYC. We had a hot plate and a few great ideas. We shot our first viral video—a take on a Harry Potter-inspired Butterbeer—on the floor of a storage closet. There was no bazillion-dollar test kitchen, no TV network, no newspaper legacy to propel us like our competitors: We just wanted to make people smile and share. We said, “You don’t have to know how to cook, you just have to love to eat.”
In a lot of ways, Delish helped define the culinary landscape we live in now, where people are allowed to have FUN with their food. So here we are, 10 years, 30M+ followers, 1B+ video views, 14 cookbooks, 17 magazine issues, 40+ amazing employees, a 3,000-square-foot kitchen studio, and countless amazing moments later. And while the vision remains the same, what keeps people coming back is the food. So we’ve brought together our 100 most loved, shared, and obsessed-over recipes that our fans (and our team) turn to again and again. Because if it doesn’t taste good, what was the point of this whole journey anyway?
