Kimchi

Very good for you! It has natural bacteria that's good for your stomach, like yoghurt except no diary.

1. Napa cabbage about 2-3 pounds
2. Ginger roots: grated 2-3 tbs
3. Green onion: chop 1 inch long half cup
4. Carrots: grated half a cup
5. Garlic: grated 2-3 tbs
6. Chili powder for making kimchi: 1/3 cup
7. Fish sauce :1/4 cup
8. Asian pear: grated finely, use it to substitute sugar/and add freshness : 2 pears
9. Salt: about 1/2 cup for soaking in the cabbage

How to;

1. Cut the cabbage into about 1 inch long.
2. Mix the salt well then add water to cover the cabbage.
3. Soak it for 4-5 hours or over night.
4. Then rinse the cabbage 2-3 times. Let it drain well.
5. Mix the ingredients from 2-8 in separate bowl.
6. And mix the cabbage and the mix sauce together.
7. Put in a jar with tight lid and leave it at room temperature for 4-5 days. After it  can keep in the fridge for as long as a month. Old kimchi is best to make it into soup.

It's good to eat as a side dish, or make it into pancakes or soup.
