i've been on soup & rice kick lately, and today i had a strong

craving for something brothy, kimchi-y, with rice.

so some kind of a kimchi soup (brothier/soupier version of kimchi jigae)

was in order, though it's something i've made up mostly... with

kale, mushrooms and tinned salmon.

so perfect with brown rice on my churny stomach today.

(anything kimchi also goes nicely with eggs. yummy.)
