 Directions

Cut cabbage into chunks about 1-inch square; place in a large bowl and add
2 tablespoons of the salt. Mix well. Cover and let stand at room
temperature until cabbage is wilted and reduced to about half its original
volume (3 to 4 hours). Rinse thoroughly; drain. Return to bowl along with
daikon (if used), onions, garlic, pepper, sugar, and remaining 1/2
tablespoon salt; mix well. Pack lightly into a 1-quart jar; cover with lid
or plastic wrap and let stand at room temperature, tasting often, until
fermented to your liking. (In warm weather, fermentation may only take 1
to 2 days; in cooler weather, count on 3 to 4 days.) Store in the
refigerated, covered, for up to 2 weeks.

Makes about 3-1/2 cups.
