  1. Hi Sunny. Thanks for sharing this recipe. I have a question regarding step 3. Are you supposed to put the 2 Tbsp of salt and 1 Tbsp vinegar and 1 tsp of sugar on the vegetables in step 2?

    Thanks!

  2. I have the same question. Where are you putting the seasonings in step 3? Also, in step 2 are you supposed to drain the salt and water that comes out from step 2 before going to step 3?
