Directions
Quarter the cabbage lengthwise, then cut across the quarters into 1½ inch-wide pieces.
Put the cabbage in a very large bowl and add the pickling salt.
Toss so the salt coats the cabbage evenly.
Allow to stand for 30 minutes. Toss the cabbage a couple of times during that time.
Rinse the cabbage with cold water and drain.
Toss with the remaining ingredients and pack into a large crock or covered pottery casserole.
Add water to cover, about 3 cups. Allow to sit on the counter for 1 to 2 days.
Store in the refrigerator, covered, in the crock or in individual glass jars.
Serve as a relish with any Korean dinner or use in cooking meat or soup dish.
