The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a multifunctional sauce using kimchi seasoning and to a multifunctional sauce manufactured by the method that can be easily stored for a long period of time without preservatives, which are inspired by producing kimchi. In addition, the multifunctional sauce using kimchi seasoning is manufactured by preparing kimchi seasoning, soy sauce seasoning, and gochujang seasoning, respectively, ripening them for 2 days, and mixing them. The multifunctional sauce using kimchi seasoning can be refrigerated at low temperature, its color and taste do not change much even after a long period of time, and it can be used to cook a number of dishes conveniently and conveniently.

The present invention comprises a novel natural yellow colorant system to enhance the appearance of pickled and/or fermented vegetable products. Individually all-natural yellow pigments failed light stability investigations in pickled and/or fermented vegetable products—either the yellow hue of the brine solution faded, or the pulp/skin of the vegetable turned white, or both. Surprisingly combinations of these same individual natural yellow pigments not only created brine hues and vegetable coloring comparable to FD&C Yellow #5 products but remained stable in accelerated light stability investigations designed to mimic the real-time shelf-life of the products.
