Step-by-step recipes for salads with Chinese cabbage

I discovered Chinese cabbage after I really wanted to try to cook the Korean dish kimchi. In the photo in the magazine with the recipe, the food looked incredibly appetizing, so I immediately went to the store. I was lucky because there were pre-holiday discounts in the supermarket that day, and the coveted product, which already has an affordable price, is worth mere pennies. Most of the vegetable I bought was used to make kimchi, and from the remaining heads of cabbage I cooked various salads for a whole week. Am I tired of it? Surprisingly, no. Adding new ingredients each time, I managed to enrich myself with a dozen excellent recipes that absolutely everyone who has tried them will like.
