Coarse ground is the proper one for Baechu Kimchi for sure. But then having such 'specialized one' can be a luxury for remote areas.

I know that typically requires quite a bit of advance planning, but there are, for example, [quick kimchi recipes](http://www.beyondkimchee.com/30-minute-kimchi/), and while they feature one major exotic ingredient -- Korean chile pepper flakes, better known as gochugaru -- [you can order the stuff off Amazon](https://www.amazon.com/Tae-kyung-Korean-Pepper-Flakes-Gochugaru/dp/B005G8IDTQ/ref=sr_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8\u0026amp;qid=1498450069\u0026amp;sr=8-1\u0026amp;keywords=gochugaru). And if you don't want to make your own kimchi, substitute the kimchi juice for gochujang, [which can also be purchased from Amazon](https://www.amazon.com/Chung-Jung-One-Gochujang-500g/dp/B013HB0CC4/ref=sr_1_3_s_it?s=grocery\u0026amp;ie=UTF8\u0026amp;qid=1498450082\u0026amp;sr=1-3\u0026amp;keywords=gochujang), or, just as likely, you can find gochujang in a lot of grocery stores now (at least where I live, I haven't canvassed the country).\r\n\r\nI cook everything from French food to American to African stuff. You'd be amazed what you can substitute, and how you rarely have to go to specialty stores for what you need. I have the benefit of an East Asian supermarket near me, but to be honest, nearly everything I've found there, I have later found in other grocery stores. The only exceptions have been the truly, *truly* obscure stuff (ever had a recipe call for a jar of tiny, pickled shrimp?), and I typically don't make those recipes again. \r\n\r\nI do understand the frustration -- despite how much I love to cook, I hate shopping -- but there are always options, and usually they aren't very difficult ones.
