David Chang's quick "white" version of kimchi uses 7UP, an unexpected ingredient that adds lovely bubbliness to the cabbage. It can be served as a side dish like traditional red chile kimchi or with cold noodle soup.

Ingredients

1 lb. Napa cabbage
1 tbsp. kosher salt
1 tbsp. rice vinegar
2 scallions
1 carrot
2 large red chiles
1 1/2 c. 7UP or ginger ale
1 bunch watercress

Instructions

In a bowl, toss the cabbage with the salt and squeeze it to soften slightly. Cover with a small plate and a heavy can and let stand at room temperature for 1 hour.
Pour off any liquid. Stir in the vinegar, scallions, carrot, and chiles. Add the 7UP, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. Fold in the watercress just before serving.
