▢1 Medium Head Napa Cabbage
▢1/4 cup Iodine-free Sea Salt or Kosher Salt Crucial! Use coarse salt without iodine or anti-caking agents, as these can inhibit the fermentation process.

▢1 tbsp Grated Garlic
▢1 tsp Grated Fresh Ginger
▢1 tsp Granulated Sugar
▢2 tbsp Fish Sauce or Salted Shrimp Paste For a vegan alternative, use 3 tablespoons of soy sauce or a tablespoon of miso paste mixed with 2 tablespoons of water.

▢8 oz Korean Radish or Daikon Radish
