I ate this a lot growing up in my parents' home! My grandma used to boil the cabbage, but I save time by microwaving.

If you're serving this to adults only, add plenty of mustard - it tastes better. !(^^)!　
My microwave is 600W. Please adjust the cabbage cooking time depending on the wattage of your microwave as well as the mount of cabbage. I think it's best if you don't over-cook the cabbage, since you can enjoy the flavor better. ♪
If you're using regular main-season cabbage, I think it's best to julienne it finely. Recipe by rie-tin

Steps

1

Spring cabbage is very tender, so just rip it up with your hands. Leave the tough core part.
2

Grill the aburaage on both sides in a toaster oven until crispy, on top of aluminum foil.
3

Put the washed spring cabbage in a heatproof bowl, cover with plastic wrap and microwave for 3 minutes. Let it cool down a bit, then squeeze gently to drain excess moisture.
Mix the ★ sauce ingredients together. Cut up the aburaage.
4

Put the aburaage and ★ mustard-soy sauce in the bowl with the cabbage, mix and it's done. Rest for a while to let the flavors blend.
