Guajillo is not the variety of chile that would normally be included in an authentic Korean kimchee, but I urge you to try it for yourself. The results are outstanding. I like my kimchee slightly sweet but more on the sour-salty end of the scale. This recipe hits that note.
Ingredients
2 heads - Kosher salt
Method
Cut each head of cabbage into quarters, discarding the stem. Cut each quarter crosswise into 2-in- [5-cm-] thick pieces. In a large bowl, sprinkle the cabbage with 2 Tbsp salt. Massage the salt into the cabbage until it releases some water and feels wet. You want the cabbage to taste and feel salty, so add more, 1 tsp at a time, if needed.
