Method

  1. Toss the finely chopped napa cabbage with 1/2 teaspoon salt in a colander set over a bowl. Let it sit for 15 minutes; you will see beads of water release from the cabbage. Squeeze the cabbage firmly by handfuls to wring out as much liquid as possible; skipping this step leaves watery filling that makes the wrappers soggy and tear.
