Tips:

1. Before you make the rolls i suggest you soak the sour cabbage in water because it might be too salty and sour.

1 chopped large onion

1/2 tsp salt

1tsp ground black pepper

You can find the sour cabbage heads at Safeway or Superstore.

Remove and separate cabbage leaves from head.Cut the thick root on the back of the each leaf because of the easier folding.

Then, wash them in cold water or follow the notice below. (Please do not skip this step.)

Very Important: Immerse all cabbage leaves in cold water for 1/2 hour or longer because you need to wash off the salt so cabbage rolls are not too salty.

Now, let’s make filling.
