2. Sodium carrots and beets on a large grater. You can grater carrots in Korean.
   
   
   
   
3. First, make regular cabbage with carrots. To do this, take half the cabbage, mix with grated carrots. Add half the salt, black pepper and bay leaf. Stir it all together. You need to stir until the cabbage releases the juice. Then the cabbage must be folded in a jar, tightly stacked. On top of the cabbage should cover the juice. If not enough, add some water.

4. Now let's do the same with the other half of our cabbage. Mix it with beets. Add salt and spices. Stir the beets and cabbage to let the juice in. The cabbage will turn red in the process. You also need to put it tightly in a jar.
   
   
   
   
5. After that, the banks need to cover the lids, but not tightly to breathe. Every morning you need a long knife to pierce the workpiece along the entire length. To understand what we are talking about, we recommend watching the video below. Thanks to this, cabbage will be much better leftover. It'll be ready in three days. Now it can be stewed, fried or simply eaten with vegetable oil as a salad. You can also make an incredible soup from it!
