You can also just add some salt, mix it up, and taste it. I add salt

until the mix tastes like a good soup ... just a trifle salty, but not much.

Then I also add a splash or two of vinegar, which ensures the ferment

goes in the right direction. If you use vinegar (or Korean kimchi pepper)

you need less salt.
