Another Kimchi

1 head (2-2.5lb) Napa or green cabbage, cut into pieces (kinda whatever you want - they recommend 2x1" squares but I like it a little more thinly sliced)
2 tbsp kosher salt
2 tsp minced garlic
1 tsp peeled, grated ginger
2 tbsp fish sauce
1 tsp sugar
3 tbsp gochugaru (Korean chile pepper flakes)
4 green onions, green parts only, in 2 inch pieces
1/4 cup yellow onion, thinly sliced

1. Mix cabbage with salt and let it sit for about an hour. Drain and lightly rinse, let sit another 10-15 minutes.
2. Mix garlic, ginger, fish sauce, sugar, gochugaru. Let sit 15 min.
3. Mix everything. Pack into a glass jar, add a little water to get the last seasoning paste. Let it sit in the covered jar for about 3 days at room temperature. (might bubble over.) Then refrigerate.
