Ginger Carrot Daikon Kimchi [Vegan]

Ingredients

• 6 cups shredded napa cabbage
• 1 cup shredded daikon radish or beets
• 1 cup shredded carrots
• 2 tablespoons minced ginger
• 1 tablespoon minced garlic
• 2 teaspoons chili garlic paste or harissa
• 2 teaspoons kosher salt

Preparation

1. Place all ingredients into a large bowl and mix, mashing down ingredients.
2. The cabbage will shrink considerably, keep mashing for a few minutes. Cover and place in the refrigerator overnight for a brine to form.
3. The next day, smash the kimchi mixture into jars, pushing down as much as possible. Leave a 2-inch head space at top of jars, making sure there is enough liquid to cover the kimchi
4. Place or nylon mesh/cheesecloth over the top of the jars.
5. Check after 2 days, making sure the kimchi is submerged under brine. If not, push it back down. If there is a slight whitening/drying of top layer, scoop off and discard (this happens only in the container with a mesh cover). You may have to pour off some bring if you're getting too much overflowing.
6. Continue letting kimchi sit until you like the taste, about 5-7 days. The warmer it is, the faster this will take.
7. Serve on top of salads or eat on its own.
