Kimchi is a Korean dish of pickles eaten as a side dish, a wrap and as a condiment.

Tina Ng, who was running the stall selling fermented pickles and vegetables, said: “I come to this market quite often – it’s been quite busy for a Friday – very decent.”

The company said in a statement: “Our Kimchi are all naturally fermented for a minimum of 12 weeks so it increases maximum health benefits and tastiness.

“Creating a balance between the tanginess and deep flavours of the cabbage fermented.

“The taste of the Kimchi we always aim to achieve is Kimchi with a thickened, tangy brine, a balance of mellow cheesy notes, a touch of fizz, crunchiness of the cabbage, and a well-rounded moorish flavour.”

There is also a regular Monday food market in the market place in Abingdon, plus a local excellent market which is held a number of times of year.
