What is Sour-pickled Mustard? It is Chinese green vegetable that is fermented in salt water and Chinese herbs. The end product tastes a little sour and salty. It is very common to eat this in China, also in Indonesia for Chinese dishes. It is basically very similar to Kimchi (Korean fermented cabbage) but it is not spicy. I used to have this kind of soup when I was little, cooked by my mom, of course. So here I am, remaking my own version of Sour-pickled muster and pork soup. Enjoy cooking!
