Cutcabbage. Cut length wise in quarters. Cut out
core on each pc. Salt the cabbage in a large bowl.
Mix by hand and massage the cabbage until it
starts to soften. Add enough water to cover the
cabbage. Put a plate on top. Put a weight on plate
to keep cabbage submerged. Let stand 1-2 hours.
While cabbage is in brine cut rest of veg and set
aside. Make the spice paste from garlic ginger
sugar fish sauce Korean red pepper. Set aside till
cabbage has drained sufficiently. Rinse and drain
cabbage 3 times. Set aside to drain in colander
for 20 min.

w a spoon. It is best after a week or two but taste
occasionally. I store in fridge once fermenting is
complete.
