The first step: buy 5 pounds of Chinese cabbage, cut it into pieces, pickle it with an appropriate amount of salt, and leave it for about 15-24 hours. After the cabbage shrinks, the initial ingredients will be ready.
Step 2: Find a large pot that can be turned over, grind the garlic finely (a little more, about 3 taels of garlic for five pounds of Chinese cabbage), chili powder (according to your own taste), and then Add sugar, fish sauce (as much as soy sauce), and some more salt according to your taste. Just mix these ingredients together and make it look like dumpling filling.
Step 3: The fermentation should be sealed. The fermentation time depends on the temperature. Generally, it takes 4-5 days in spring, 3 days in summer, and a week in winter.
Step 4: Taste the delicious food, but be careful not to store it for too long. It is recommended that single friends must share it with friends after making it, otherwise it will spoil if one person cannot finish it. What a pity.
