Ingredients
- 560 grams Napa cabbage (about ¼ head, cut into 2-inch pieces)
- 90 grams carrots (julienned)
- 30 grams scallions (chopped)
- 5 grams ginger (minced)
- 20 grams salt (~1 tablespoon + ½ teaspoon)
- 2-3 chili peppers
- 5 grams konbu (cut into thin strips)
Instructions
- If you are using a different quantity of vegetables, weigh them, and then multiply that number by .03. This will give you the amount of salt to add. For example, in this recipe, we're using a total of 685 grams of vegetables, and 3% of 685 is about 20 grams of salt.
- Toss all of the ingredients together and pack them into a large zipper bag.
- Press out any excess air from the bag and seal it. Put the bag in a tray and cover with another smaller tray that's weighted down with cans.
- The asazuke is ready to eat when the cabbage has released a lot of liquid and has become translucent.
