SAUCE
1. Cut cabbage in half and rinse thoroughly with clean water. 2. Rub sea salt inside the cabbage by opening each of the leaves. Be careful not to use too much salt at once and apply the salt only to the root of the cabbage and not the leaves themselves, as it can become too salty. Add a little bit at a time until the salt is used up. 3. Place the cabbage in a plastic bucket large enough to hold all of it and add water to the same level as the cabbage. Soak the cabbage for 4 hours, flipping and stirring the cabbage one time so the salt can spread out. 4. Prepare the sauce putting all the ingredients in a blender and blend until well mixed. 5. After 4 hours, remove the cabbage from the bucket and rinse with clean water at least 3 times to remove the salt. 6. Drain the cabbage in a colander for 30 minutes. 7. Open each leaf of cabbage and add the sauce and roughly cut spring onions (3-4cm in length) to the cabbage leaves. 8. Layer the Kimchi in an airtight food container and seal it well. 9. Keep Kimchi in a shaded area for 1-2 days and then move to the refrigerator for storage 10.Enjoy!
