Abstract
A cold-storage method of a kimchi jar whereby kimchi is thawed after selectively input freezing time lapses to thereafter refrigerate same, so that the kimchi is prevented from being naturally aged to enable to enjoy fresh flavor of the kimchi for a long time, the method comprising the steps of: maintaining an in-chamber temperature at an established cold storage temperature for a cold storage period of time established by a manipulating unit to thereby refrigerate the kimchi; and maintaining the in-chamber temperature at a refrigerated storage temperature when the established cold storage period of time lapses, to thaw and thereafter to cold storage the kimchi stored in the cool chamber.
Claims5
A method of refrigerating kimchi utilizing a kimchi chamber, a heating/cooling mechanism for regulating a temperature of the chamber, and a controller connected to the heating/cooling mechanism for controlling the temperature of the chamber, the method comprising the steps of:
- A. inserting kimchi in a container;
- B. placing the container in the chamber;
- C. maintaining an in-chamber temperature at a predetermined cold storage freezing temperature for a cold storage period of time to thereby freeze the kimchi;
- D. maintaining the in-chamber temperature at a predetermined thawing temperature when the cold storage period of time lapses, to thaw the frozen kimchi stored in the chamber;
- and
- E. maintaining the in-chamber temperature at a predetermined refrigerated storage temperature higher than the temperature of step C for storing the thawed kimchi.
