Instructions

1. Roughly clean the cabbage and remove any bad leaves. Cut it into two or four pieces. I cut into four pieces. Spread kosher salt evenly on the leaves. Do a little message and make sure all parts are well coated with salt. Set aside for around 6 8 hours or overnight until the leaves starting to soften and wilt.
2. Wash the cabbage under running water to remove extra salt and avoid over salty kimchi. Squeeze the water out and set aside.
