I am grateful to thumperguy who gave me a recipe a long long time ago which I still haven’t made exactly according to how he laid it out however I do use those things whatever they’re called in salads and in my vegetables and some sort of meat and vegetable concoction, So it wasn’t a total waste of your time thumper. I’ll get around to the recipe eventually, hopefully.

Jake. Jog my sluggish memory. What recipe did I send to you?

Not to step on Thumperguys toes, but it is probably his kraut or kimchi recipe. I lost the kimchi recipe. So would like a repeat post if possible. thanks.
The current batch is 2 heads green cabbage, 3 rather large chopped green onions with tops, red Bell Pepper cut to small pieces, perhaps a third of a cup.
Process cabbage to approx. consistency of Cole Slaw. Transfer to a large mixing bowl. Add 1-2 tbls. Course Sea salt (mine happened to be ALESSI brand. Morton’s Course Kosher works equally well.
Knead the mixture and be fascinated as, with a little help from you, chemical magic unfolds, soon yielding a soggy mass (not mess). Mix in a tablespoon of Paprika and a sprinkle or two of powdered Cayenne pepper (to taste), and some Caraway seeds. Let it rest for a few minutes then spoon into quart Mason jars, compressing the mixture as you go. I usually stuff a leftover cabbage leaf into the jar to top off the mixture but this isn’t crucial. Cap loosely and set aside out of direct sunlight. After a week I transfer to the fridge and soon begin to cheat by taking a smidgin’ a bit early, though I understand that it continues to be active, but at a slower pace I’d guess. Don
