Recipe

Place seaweed on a colander, sprinkle with coarse salt, and rub gently with your hands to wash.
Rinse the seaweed thoroughly under cold water four times to remove saltiness and impurities.
Squeeze out as much water as possible from the rinsed seaweed using your hands.
After squeezing moisture from the store-bought kimchi cabbage, slice it finely to complement the seaweed.
In a bowl, mix vinegar 3 tablespoons, sugar 2 tablespoons, minced garlic 1 tablespoon, green onion 1 tablespoon, and soy sauce a little to make the dressing.
Add the squeezed and clumped seaweed to the dressing, mixing well with your hands, then add the sliced kimchi cabbage and lightly toss to combine.

Rub seaweed on a colander with coarse salt, rinse under cold water four times, and squeeze out all moisture.
Remove moisture from store-bought kimchi cabbage and slice into bite-sized pieces.
Mix vinegar, sugar, garlic, green onion, and soy sauce together, then add seaweed and kimchi cabbage, tossing gently.

Cooking tips

Never wash seaweed directly in a mixing bowl—always use a fine colander to prevent loss of ingredients.
Avoid squeezing seaweed too hard, as it may become stiff and clump; when mixing with dressing, gently separate strands with your fingertips for even coating.
