STEP 1/10
Cut the bottom of the cabbage into 10 shapes and cut it into 4 pieces by hand.
If you make a cut on the top and split the cabbage, the inside of the cabbage will not break.
STEP 2/10
I cut it into 4 pieces. When you pickle, you don't have to wash and pickle the cabbage, but you can wash it three to four times after pickling.
STEP 3/10
Dissolve 3 cups of salt in 3 liters of water.
Dip the cabbage in the melted salt water, soak it, then scoop it out and sprinkle salt between the cabbages.
Burn 3 cups of salt in water and sprinkle 1 cup of cabbage with the remaining 3 cups.
After sprinkling all the salt, pour the melted salt water and pickle it.
* When you sprinkle salt, mainly on the stem.
STEP 4/10
When you pickle, don't turn it upside down and let the inside of the cabbage come up.
After 3 to 4 hours, change the position of the cabbage.
STEP 5/10
The time to pickle depends on the size of the cabbage and the amount of salt, but it takes about 8 to 10 hours to pickle.
Summer cabbages are pickled in about 5-6 hours, and the amount of salt is low.
STEP 6/10
It's been about 8 hours, so it's salted enough to bend softly.
STEP 7/10
I washed the pickled cabbage three to four times and took it out in a basket.
Drain the cabbage leaves from the flip side so that they are underneath when you take them out.
STEP 8/10
The stem part remained fresh and the leaves were pickled in a state of breathlessness.
STEP 9/10
If you pickle the stem too much, the kimchi becomes salty.
STEP 10/10
You have to make it bendable gently and fresh so that you can put kimchi in it without being salty and delicious.
