My inspiration was a recipe I saw on Granny Choe's website at http://www.grannychoe.com/. After testing it out on friends and family, I made some changes and I'm submitting it for your enjoyment. The kimchi flavor in this version is subtle. If you want to bring out the kimchi flavor more, you can replace the pear juice with kimchi juice to increase the tang and spice. —Tamar

I made this for a Korean-American Thanksgiving with Korean extended family members. I was a little skeptical going in, to be honest, but the dish was a total hit.

Brilliant... Who'd have thought oregano and thyme would jive with kimchi? I commend you for your creativity!

The one herb that did NOT jive was sage. There's some sage in most stuffing mixes which is ok. Just don't add more. Yuck!
