Our Story

The Tangy Affairs

Behind The Crime Scene

Tangy Affairs began with a frustration I couldn’t ignore. For something as bold and full of character as fermented food, so much of what I tried simply didn’t live up to it too acidic, sometimes pushed so far it became fizzy, or just flat, missing the depth and umami that makes you want to go back for another bite. It often felt like something you were meant to eat, rather than something you actually crave.

Questions from the Investigation

How long does kimchi last once opened?

It can last several months in the fridge. As it ferments further, it will become more sour, making it perfect for cooking.

Is your kimchi actually spicy?

Yes, we offer different spice levels. Our classic version packs a moderate kick.

What's the difference between your varieties?

We offer traditional cabbage, radish, and cucumber kimchi, each with a unique texture and flavor profile.

Do you ship across Canada? What about internationally?

We currently ship nationwide across Canada. International shipping is coming soon.

Is your kimchi vegan?

We have a dedicated vegan line that uses seaweed and soy sauce instead of traditional shrimp paste or fish sauce.

Can I use kimchi as a cooking ingredient?

Absolutely! It's fantastic in fried rice, stews, savory pancakes, and even grilled cheese sandwiches.
