Sauerkraut
SERVES 20 | 14 Days Ferment Time


Ingredients
- 1 whole cabbage
- 2 carrots
- 1 tbs sea salt
Method
- Using either a knife or the grate attachment of the food processor, finely chop or grate the cabbage and carrots.
- Place a handful of grated cabbage and carrot into a jar, pressing down firmly.
- Sprinkle with a little salt and repeat in layers until you have used all of your cabbage/carrot mixture.
- Add filtered water to cover. Leave at least 3 cm from the top of the jar for expansion.
- Cover the jar and place in a cool, dark area. This sauerkraut will take at least 14 days to ferment.
- Once fermented, keep in the refrigerator where it will keep for a very long time.
- Add garlic, apple chunks, herbs, etc. for different flavours.
- Sometimes the cabbage floats to the top of the jar. Check the jar each day and make sure it is submerged under the water. Push it under if it is not.
