Marinated Napa cabbage
Description
This recipe won't take much time. You can add your favorite vegetables to this cabbage—daikon, radish, young zucchini, aromatic herbs. The main requirement is thin slicing so everything marinates well together. If you don't have Korean pepper or gochujang paste, substitute ground hot red pepper and paprika. It will still taste delicious. You can serve it warm or chilled.
