For this
First remove the top leaves of the cabbage and cut it into thin strips. Pour them into a bowl, sprinkle with salt and rub the cabbage with your hands. Salt releases juice, which is also a breeding ground for milk fermentation. If you want, you can add a little cumin for traditional taste.
Press the finished cabbage firmly into a clean glass or ceramic container. The juice should completely cover the cabbage – if not, add a little water. Cover with a cloth or free lid and leave at room temperature. Mix the cabbage lightly or push the cabbage to remain submerged in the juice.
Done in three days
Thanks to the short fermentation time, you will get cabbage fresh, crunchy and slightly acidic taste, ideal for quick preparation. If you prefer more acidity, you can extend the process by another day or two, but the three -day version is delicious and perfectly suited to salads, sandwiches or the main food.
Why Home Gardrobe
Homemade sauerkraut contains a lot of vitamin C, fiber and probiotics that promote digestion and immunity. In addition, you are sure that you do not add any chemical preservatives to it, which is a huge difference from the purchased variants from the store.
“Said cabbage is an excellent source of probiotics that support the health of intestinal microflora and digestion. It also contains vitamins C and K, fiber and minerals that strengthen the immune system and overall health,” confirms Claire Sorlie nutritional advisor.
With a little practice and only a few ingredients, in a few days, you can enjoy a home delicacy that will delight the whole family and give everyone a good dose of vitamins.
