Step 1. Cut the Napa cabbage into quarters. Step 2. Remove the bottom of the cabbage. Step 3. Cut the cabbage into small pieces and add it to a big bowl. Step 4. Add 100 g of salt to the cabbage bowl. Step 5. Add two cups of water and give it a good stir with your hands. Step 6. Then let it set for forty minutes. Step 7. Add one tablespoon of grated garlic to a bowl not the cabbage bowl Step 8. Add one tablespoon of grated ginger in the same bowl as the garlic. Step 9. Add Korean red pepper chilli flakes in the garlic bowl. Step 10. Add 50 ml of starch diluted in water into the garlic bowl and stir it with a spoon. Step 11. Add ½ cup of water in the garlic bowl. Step 12. Cut the white radish in half. Step 13. Cut the white radish in thin strips. I suggest a veggie shredder and then add it to the bowl. Step 14. Shred a medium carrot into the white radish bowl. Step 15. Chop up two spring onions and add it to the white radish bowl. Step 16. Add One tablespoon of sugar into the garlic bowl well now it’s called the paste bowl. Step 17. Now you can add the white radish bowl inside the paste and give it a good stir don’t add the cabbage just yet. Step 18. After the cabbage is done rinse it under a tap make sure its in a colander inside a bowl Step 19. When the cabbage is done it will be nice and soft if it is add everything all together. This may get dirty because you're using your hand so make sure there clean. Step 20. Put it in a jar carefully and don't fill it all the way. Step 21. Leave it in the fridge the reason why you give it space is so gas doesn't build up in the jar Step 22. Eat it when it's ready some take weeks months years till its ready don’t eat it straight away Tip: step 3 is just so it has less space in the jar. Fact: did you know that Korean families and villages change the method of making kimchi amazing. |
