5- 6 pounds napa (Chinese) cabbage
½ cup coarse sea salt
1- Rinse Cabbage, chop into large chunks. Place into a large bowl creating layers by sprinkling liberally with the coarse sea salt in between. Continue and cover with cold water. Keep soaking for 2 hours. Drain and rinse well.
Chop cabbage into bite-size pieces and begin adding your veggies and seasonings. Mix well and sit on the counter to ferment for 2 days before putting into the fridge. Enjoy.

You tube has great videos to make it. I use a Korean recipe. Of course, I have a Korean daughter n law.
I have been watching a few, going to give it a go Thank you :)
This looks so good!

If I added that my husband would kill me. Lmao. 🤣😂🤣
Looks awesome, I bet its spicy!
Super!
Thank you.
It is and very tasty. Sometimes I make it pretty hot.
This is what I need for my gut...I have been buying canned sauerkraut but fresh home made fermented food I know is better.
Maybe you could pass along your recipe for this Korean Kimchi?
I will make a note to remind me to get it out for you. ;-)
Thank you :-)
