I happened to look up something today which a Korean friend told me about long ago.


He said that the Korean equivalent of the homey Currier and Ives sort of Winter painting - which we usually associate with Christmas - is a picture of a traditional Korean house with Onggi in the yard, covered in snow.

The Onggi are the traditional clay pots that Kimchi and other fermented veggies are kept in.

This excellent website has an article about Onggi, and also includes recipes for Napa Cabbage Kimchi and Radish Kimchi, if you hunt around:
