Give me your favorite foods/recipes that involve Kimchi. I've made Kimchi fried rice three times in the past week and I wanna mix it up.
Nothing that uses exotic Asian ingredients that I'd have to go search for. But I do have a decent amount of common Asian ingredients

soups is all i've ever used it in.
I usually just put it on a turkey sandwich or eat it out of the jar.

For particularly sour kimchi, kimchi-chi-ge. It's a soup where you brown some thin pork or beef slices, saute some onion and garlic, add stock and kimchi and simmer for 30 minutes. If you don't want beef or pork add shrimp, clams, fish or oysters at the end.
If your kimchi is fresh, just leave it at room temperature on the counter for a few days and it will become more sour from the lacto bacteria.

I fucking love kimchi with fried eggs. Runny yolk and kimchi are sublime

I've had this at a number of restaurants, and all of them except one make them really watery. What's the secret to making it more stew-like? I've checked recipes online, but I didn't notice a thickener or any particular differences.
Is kimchi better tasting hot or cold?

I've never seen it thickened with anything before. If you want it "thick"just mash up the soft tofu a bunch.
Kimchi fried rice.
Slice some, add cubes ham and pineapple chunks and green onions. Really amazing.

>make it thicker
Just simmer it longer or don't add as much stock.
