Step 1: Make the filling & sauce

First, add the chopped cabbage to a bowl and mix it with a sprinkle of salt. Let it sit for 10 minutes while you prepare the remaining ingredients.
Next, use a towel to remove the excess moisture from the salted cabbage. Return the cabbage to the bowl and add the ground pork, thinly sliced scallion, grated ginger, garlic, chile, salt, and MSG. Vigorously mix the filling with your hands until it becomes sticky and pasty, which will ensure a tight bind in the filling.
Mix together the sauce. Taste and adjust as needed.
