Ingredients

4 teaspoons Sugar

1/2 cup Salt

4 Heads Garlic

3 tablespoons MSG Or Accent

1 pound Carrots

2 lrg Bunches Green Onions

1 lrg Head Chinese Cabbage

2 smalls Heads Regular Cabbage

3 1/2 tablespoons Garlic Salt

1 1/2 tablespoons Paprika

4 tablespoons Dried Red Pepper Flakes

20 lrg Green Bell Peppers

Preparation

Clean the kitchen sink as this is where you will be working. Cut the regular cabbage into 2 to 3 inch pieces. Place the cabbage in the sink and add the salt. Work in the salt using a kneading motion, until the cabbage is broken up. The Chinese cabbage should now be cut up and added; no kneading required. Let this stand for 5 to 10 minutes and then rinse once or twice and drain well. Shred the carrots, with a potato peeler or a fine food processor shreder. Cut the green onions into 2 inch pieces, using all of the onions. Cut the green peppers into 1/2 inch

Hints: For fermentation, leave the jug in the garage or other place outside the house; it really smells. Also, don't seal the lid on the jug, it might explode.
