Let customers speak for us
This is the only gochujang I use after trying it once. It's warm, has deep flavour and tastes healthy and homely. Never going back to the store bought one! Thank you Ginger for such a lovely product, it is now a staple in our home.
I love this no chilli option, great variety of fermented vegetables, authentic and tasty.
I've always wanted to learn how to make kimchi, and who better to learn off than the person that makes my favourite kimchi - Ginger. She was very thorough and patient, kind and thoughtful. So much easier seeing it in person and ensuring the right ingredients are used to get the best taste possible. Totally recommend!
I am so pleased to find a variety of authentic kimchi options, available as vegan, and a non chilli, ginger recipe.
They ensured my order arrived even when held up by postal delays.
+++ service!
definitely can taste the difference between store bought kimchi and Gingers, can't compare, Gingers really brings the authentic kimchi flavour to kimchi lovers, my new go-to kimchi!
I really enjoyed learning how to make summer and winter Kimchi. I have just made Kimchi pancakes with the last of my winter Kimchi! I hope to be making more soon when I buy the specific ingredients that you gave us on the morning.
Best taste (not too salty and we love the taste of the ginger in it), fresh and also fresher smell than the one we bought from a supermarket. Great price too! Couldn’t ask for more. My child (who usually doesn’t eat her veggies willingly) for some reason LOVES this cabbage kimchi. What a WIN! Thanks a million Ginger’s Pantry!
Ginger showed us so much more than you could learn from a video or a recipe. It was really great to go through the process of making Kimchi with Ginger and have the opportunity to ask questions. Everything was so well organised and it was very satisfying to come home with a large container of Kimchi, using two different techniques. The kimchi is absolutely delicious and I feel confident I’ll be able to make the next batch on my own.
This was our first time trying this and I can see it becoming a staple in our life. Xxx
The real deal with excellent ingredients and fabulous taste

Fermentation stage
0–22 days (Early Fermentation)
Probiotics: Peak activity!
Freshly made kimchi is packed with lively bacteria , giving you maximum gut benefits.
Taste & Texture: Mildly sour, subtly sweet, and delightfully crisp—perfect for raw enjoyment!
22–92 days (Mid-Fermentation)
Probiotics: Still high, some slow down
Lactobacillus spp. take over, acidity rises, slightly mellowing bacterial growth.
Taste & Texture: More tangy, softer bite, still full of goodness!
92–169 days (Late Fermentation / Aged Kimchi)
Probiotics: Lower activity
Strong acidity slows bacteria, but many survive—perfect for rich, aged flavor lovers.
Taste & Texture: Deeply tangy, tender, and complex—great for cooking or adventurous palates.
Welcome to Gingers Pantry
Hello! My name is Hyun Ju Yun & I'm also known as Ginger!
I personally make every jar of kimchi from scratch, I even cut the vegetables myself!
I believe my Kimchi is the best you can find in New Zealand because we make it the proper Korean way.
I know what makes a good Kimchi, as my mother was a Kimchi master in my home town in Korea when she was running a restaurant.
I would like to introduce you to many types of fermented product with natural ingredients & at a reasonable price.
I love fermented food because it doesn't use much energy to produce and it's healthy for you. It is good for you and for this beautiful planet.
