Favored by many, this juicy kimchi is for all seasons. The thinly
sliced radish and cabbage squares are elaborated with narrow julienne
of aromatic vegetables such as Korean watercress and green onions.
Furthermore, the fresh red pepper strips and the finely powdered red
peppers exaggerate the flavor and create an appetizingly reddish  color
for the kimchi. It goes nicely with your favorite snacks.
PRELIMINARIES    Preparing the Vegetables. Trim and wash the Korean
radish, cleaning  the skin with a soft sponge. Separate the tender
inner leaves of the  celery cabbage. Trim off the leaves of the Korean
water-cress and  green onions; washthem with cold water and drain.
PREPARATIONS    Cut the cabbage leaves at 1 1/4"(3 cm) intervals and
halve the cut  pieces; cut the radish into thin 1 1/4" (3 cm) squares.
Sprinkle the cut-up radish and cabbage pieces with salt and allow  them
to stand until softened, about 30 minutes. Rinse with water and  drain.
Cut the stems of the Korean watercress and the green onion stalks  into
1 1/2" (4 cm) lengths; cut the onion pieces into narrow strips.  Halve
the red peppers, seed, and cut them into narrow strips; peel  the
garlic and ginger and cut them into slivers.    Add all the prepared
vegetables--the green onions, Korean  watercress, ginger, garlic, and
red peppers--to the salted cabbage  and radish pieces. Toss the
vegetables throughly and put the mixture  into a crock.    Mix the fine
red pepper powder and a brine prepared with 1/4 cup of  table salt and
4 to 5 quarts of water. If the red pepper powder  contains big pieces,
wrap the powder in 3 layers of cheesecloth and  shake in the brine to
prevent any big pieces from getting into the  kimchi souse and clouding
it.    Pour the kimchi souse over the vegetable mixture in the crock.
REMARKS    If you like this kimchi less spicy, red pepper threads may
be  substituted for the red pepper powder.    You may try a combination
of radish, carrot, and cucumber for a good  color combination.  GNC
