Preparation

Step 1
To make the soup, place the broth, mushrooms and ginger in a large pot and simmer for 30 minutes. Strain. Stir in soy.
Step 2
At least 1 day ahead, toss the cabbage with the salt in a large bowl and let stand at room temperature for 3 hours. Rinse and firmly press out the liquid. Combine the ginger, garlic, 4 minced scallions, red chilies, fish sauce, water and soy and toss with the cabbage until well coated. Place in a tightly sealed container and refrigerate up to 5 days.
Step 3
For the cucumber salad, combine 1 scallion, jalapenos, vinegar, sesame oil, ¼ teaspoon of salt and sesame seeds in a bowl, add the cucumbers and toss well. Set aside.
Step 4
Toss the rice with the chives. Place the kimchi, the cucumber salad, the rice, the scallions and the radish in separate bowls. Arrange the carpaccio on a plate. Ladle the soup into bowls. Serve, passing the condiments separately.
