Frequently Asked Questions About Knorr Instant Kimchi Cheese Soup
How do you make Knorr Instant Kimchi Cheese Soup?
Make Knorr Instant Kimchi Cheese Soup with the amount of hot water stated on the packet. Stir thoroughly as you add the water so the powder dissolves evenly, then let it stand for the time specified in the instructions before eating.
What does Knorr Instant Kimchi Cheese Soup taste like?
Knorr Instant Kimchi Cheese Soup has a savory, cheesy flavor with a spicy, tangy kimchi-style note. It tastes like a quick flavored soup rather than a traditional Korean soup made with fermented kimchi and other fresh ingredients.
Is Knorr Instant Kimchi Cheese Soup spicy?
Yes, Knorr Instant Kimchi Cheese Soup is intended to taste spicy, though the heat may feel stronger if you prefer mild foods. Adding a little more water can soften the flavor, but it also makes the soup less concentrated.
Does Knorr Instant Kimchi Cheese Soup contain real kimchi?
The name describes the soup’s kimchi-and-cheese style, but it does not establish how much real kimchi it contains—or whether it contains any. Check the ingredient list on your packet for the specific product formulation sold in your market.
Is Knorr Instant Kimchi Cheese Soup the same as Korean kimchi jjigae?
No, Knorr Instant Kimchi Cheese Soup is not traditional kimchi jjigae. It is a powdered instant soup with kimchi and cheese flavors, while kimchi jjigae is a Korean stew typically cooked with fermented kimchi and ingredients such as tofu.
Can you add ingredients to Knorr Instant Kimchi Cheese Soup?
Yes, you can add cooked egg, tofu, mushrooms, or vegetables to Knorr Instant Kimchi Cheese Soup. Cook any raw additions separately or ensure they are fully cooked, and taste before adding salt because the soup is already high in sodium.
Can Knorr Instant Kimchi Cheese Soup be made with milk instead of water?
You can try making Knorr Instant Kimchi Cheese Soup with milk, but it will taste creamier and differ from the packet’s intended preparation. Follow the water instructions for the result the product is designed to deliver.
Is Knorr Instant Kimchi Cheese Soup high in sodium?
Yes, Knorr Instant Kimchi Cheese Soup is high in sodium. If you are watching your salt intake, pay attention to how often you eat it and avoid pairing it with several other salty foods in the same meal.
How should you store an opened packet of Knorr Instant Kimchi Cheese Soup?
Store opened Knorr Instant Kimchi Cheese Soup powder in a tightly sealed, dry container in a cool place. Keeping moisture out helps prevent clumping; use the remaining mix soon rather than leaving an opened packet exposed.
Is Knorr Instant Kimchi Cheese Soup filling enough for a meal?
Knorr Instant Kimchi Cheese Soup is a small serving of instant soup and may not be filling enough as a meal on its own. Add tofu, egg, or another protein and vegetables if you want a more substantial bowl.

What is Knorr Instant Kimchi Cheese Soup?
Knorr Instant Kimchi Cheese Soup is a powdered soup mix made to be prepared with hot water. Its flavour pairs the tangy, chilli-spiced character of kimchi—a Korean fermented cabbage staple—with a creamy cheese note. It is a quick, packaged take on that flavour combination rather than a traditional Korean soup.
It works as a speedy lunch, desk-side snack or light supper when you want something warm with little preparation. Expect a savoury, spicy and notably salty bowl; the small pack is about 18 g. You can have it on its own or add bread for a more filling meal. Sodium is high, so consider that when planning the rest of your day’s food.
