Cooking Instructions
- 1
These are the ingredients you need to buy. I like to buy raw frozen shrimp and then cook it myself.
- 2
(To quick cook shrimp, heat a pot of water on the stove. When it boils, turn off the heat and add the shrimp. Stir them gently until they turn bright pink. Rinse them with cold water in a colander.)
- 3
Chop the head of cabbage finely. The pieces should not be bigger than your fingernails.
- 4
Place into a large bowl mix with 5% of the cabbage weight in pickling salt.
If you like less salt, it’s OK to use less like 2%. - 5
Place a weight on top of the cabbage and let it rest 30 minutes.
- 6
In the meantime, remove both top and bottom veins from the cooked shrimp. If they are large shrimp, chop them into thirds.
If they are bay shrimp, you do not need to chop them. - 7
After the cabbage has rested, place it into a clean towel and squeeze out most of the water.
Taste cabbage, if it is too salty, rinse with cold water and squeeze again. - 8
In a large mixing bowl, combine shrimp and cabbage. Mix in mayonnaise, sansho pepper and ajinomoto to taste.
It should not be too wet. - 9
It is ready to eat but it’s best when it’s refrigerated for an hour.

Izakaya Style Shio-koji Salad with Pea Sprouts and Cabbage Izakaya Style Shio-koji Salad with Pea Sprouts and Cabbage
I use a salt-based dressing for this salad which my husband loves. He likes it so much that we run out right away.I recommend this dish because it contains plenty of vitamins and minerals!It's much tastier if you let it sit in the fridge for about 10 minutes after mixing. Cabbage loses its crunchiness and moisture if you let it sit for too long. I find it best to let it sit for about 10 minutes.It's also good mixed with cucumbers and carrots. Recipe by Rugyaraga- -
