Pickled cabbage

Overview

This dish was taught to me by my father this time. It’s just that the Chinese cabbage in Beijing is a little different from that in Chengdu, so there is a slight difference in pickling. Fortunately, the taste is still very good, and it is a good partner with rice and porridge!
