Red Cabbage Kimchi Cracklings

  1. Puree the tapioca flour, kimchi, and pickling liquid in a food processor until a smooth dough is formed.
  2. Divide the dough in half and roll one portion into a thin cylinder about 3/4 inch (2 centimeters) in diameter.
  3. Place the cylinder on a sheet of plastic wrap and cover with another sheet.
  4. With a rolling pin, roll the cylinder into a flat, thin sheet approximately 1/8 inch (3 millimeters) thick.
  5. The dough should be nearly translucent.
  6. Repeat with the other cylinder.
  7. Prepare a steamer.
  8. We use a deep hotel pan filled with steaming water with a shallower perforated hotel pan inserted above the water line to make a long steamer.
  9. This way both sheets of dough fit lengthwise on top of each other.
  10. If you have a smaller steamer, youll need to cut the sheets into pieces that fit in your steamer and stack them or cook them in batches.
  11. Steam the dough sheets, still wrapped in plastic, for 15 minutes.
  12. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 180F (80C).
  13. Line a wire rack with parchment paper and set it over a large sheet pan.
  14. (This will allow for even airflow.)
  15. Unwrap the steamed dough and lay it on the parchment.
  16. Place the pan in the oven and bake for 60 minutes or until the dough has dried.
  17. Flip the dough sheets occasionally to allow for even drying.
  18. When the sheets are completely dry and brittle, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool to room temperature.
  19. Once the dough is completely cool to the touch, break or cut it into bite-size pieces.
  20. In a large pot set over high heat, add enough oil to fill the pot halfway and heat it to 400F (205C).
  21. Line a wire rack with paper towels.
  22. Fry the crisps in batches.
  23. They will puff quickly and triple in size.
  24. Remove the crisps from the hot oil with a slotted spoon and put on the rack to drain.
  25. Season lightly with salt and serve.
