1.     Slice cabbage and discard the core. Only using one half of the cabbage,  cut into thinly slices about  1/8-inch-wide strips.
2.    Place cabbage in a large colander set over a large bowl or plate, sprinkle with kosher salt, and toss to coat. Place a heavy bowl on top of the cabbage, then place a heavy can or container in the bowl to weigh it down.
