HOMEMADE SAUERKRAUT
This is a comfort food that reminds me of visiting my grandparents. They always had kielbasa and sauerkraut among the holiday feasts. Kielbasa tastes best when it is sliced thickly and placed on the bottom of the pot before you begin cooking.

Steps:
- Combine water, 1/2 of the vinegar, and onion in a pot over high heat; add cabbage, sea salt, celery seed, onion powder, garlic powder, and black pepper. Pour the remaining vinegar over cabbage mixture. Cover pot and bring water to a boil; cook mixture for about 3 minutes.
- Stir cabbage mixture and return lid to pot; cook, stirring occasionally, until cabbage is tender and wilted, 10 to 15 minutes more.

HOW TO MAKE SAUERKRAUT
Steps:
- Weigh your cabbage to see how much salt you should use.Remove the outer leaves of your cabbage and any that are damaged. Discard. Cut out the core and rinse the cabbage well, allowing the water to flow between the cabbage leaves. Drain well.Reserve 1 outer leaf. Thinly shred the remaining cabbage with a knife or food processor. Place in a large bowl. Sprinkle the calculated amount of salt over the cabbage and toss well. Let sit for 15 minutes. Massage the cabbage with your hands for 5 minutes. The cabbage should release a good amount of liquid during this time.Pack the cabbage firmly into a very clean glass quart jar. Pour the liquid that was released during kneading on top. Cut a circle the same diameter as your jar out of the reserved cabbage leaf. Place it on top of the packed-down cabbage. Place a weight on top of the cabbage to ensure that it stays under the brine. If the brine doesn't completely cover the cabbage and weight, top off with a 2% solution of salt water (1 teaspoon salt per cup of water).Screw a plastic lid onto the jar. Place the jar in a rimmed pan (to catch any overflow) and allow to ferment at room temperature until the kraut is as sour as you like it. This can take anywhere from 1-4 weeks.After it's done fermenting, store the sauerkraut in the refrigerator.

Steps:
- Thoroughly wash a large tub or bowl (we used on the size of a small washing-up bowl), then rinse with boiling water from the kettle. Make sure that your hands, and everything else coming into contact with the cabbage, are very clean. It's wise to use a container that will comfortably fit the softened cabbage, allowing several inches of room at the top to avoid overflow.
- Shred the cabbage thinly - a food processor makes light work of this. Layer the cabbage and the salt in the tub or bowl. Massage the salt into the cabbage for 5 mins, wait 5 mins, then repeat. You should end up with a much-reduced volume of cabbage sitting in its own brine. Mix in the caraway seeds and the peppercorns.
- Cover the surface of the cabbage entirely with a sheet of cling film, then press out all the air bubbles from below. Weigh the cabbage down using a couple of heavy plates, or other weights that fit your bowl, and cover as much of the cabbage as possible. The level of the brine will rise to cover the cabbage a little. Cover the tub and leave in a dark place at a cool room temperature (about 18-20C) for at least five days. It will be ready to eat after five days, but for maximum flavour leave the cabbage to ferment for anywhere between 2-6 weeks (or until the bubbling subsides).
- Check the cabbage every day or so, releasing any gases that have built up as it ferments, giving it a stir to release the bubbles. If any scum forms, remove it, rinse the weights in boiling water and replace the cling film. You should see bubbles appearing within the cabbage, and possibly some foam on the top of the brine. It's important to keep it at an even, cool room temperature - too cool and the ferment will take longer than you'd like, too warm and the sauerkraut may become mouldy or ferment too quickly, leading to a less than perfect result.
- The cabbage will become increasingly sour the longer it's fermented, so taste it now and again. When you like the flavour, transfer it to smaller sterilised jars. Will keep in the fridge for up to six months.

Steps:
- Mix cabbage, onion, sea salt, and garlic together in a bowl. Firmly pack mixture into a large, clean, food-grade plastic bucket. The cabbage will start to make its own brine as the salt starts to draw out the water of the cabbage.
- Fill a large, clean, food-grade plastic bag with water and place over the salted cabbage mixture so none of the cabbage is exposed to air.
- Allow cabbage to ferment in a cool, dry place, 1 to 4 weeks (depending on how tangy you like your sauerkraut). The temperature of the room you ferment the sauerkraut in should not rise above 70 degrees F (21 degrees C).

Steps:
- Wash and scald crock.
- Remove soiled outer leaves from cabbage but do not wash the heads (the wild yeast on the unwashed cabbage are a factor in the fermentation process).
- Shred the cabbage directly into the crock using a kraut shredder or mandolin so that it is not necessary to handle the cabbage.
- The shreds should be long and about the thickness of a nickel, 1/16".
- If cut too thinly, sauerkraut is soft and mushy; if too thickly, it is unattractive in appearance.
- Sprinkle a layer of salt over each 1" layer of cabbage.
- Pack each layer down well, using a potato masher or glass jar.
- When all the cabbage and salt are in the jar, cover with a clean white cloth; place an inverted plate on the cloth and top with as large a piece of limestone as possible.
- The weight of the stone holds the cabbage under the brine that soon forms and the small amount of lime that is dissolved by the brine aids in the lactic acid fermentation which gives sauerkraut is distinctive flavor.
- Allow to ferment from one month to six weeks in a cool place, preferably at a room temperature of 60F (basement, for example).
- A higher temperature speeds fermentation but the kraut is subject to spoilage.
- Skim off any film that may have formed during the fermentation period.
- The sauerkraut may be left in the crock for several months if care is taken that the brine always covers the kraut and that the film is removed eachtime the crock is opened.
- Use a clean cloth each time the crock is covered.

- Prepare the Cabbage:Remove any bruised or damaged exterior leaves from the cabbage, then cut the cabbage in half and remove the core. Slice the cabbage very thinly, approximately 1/8 inch thick. For the best texture we recommend slicing it very thinly by hand, not with a food processor. You can slice it by hand, use a mandolin, or cabbage slicer.Place the sliced cabbage in a large bowl and toss in the salt. Let it sit for about 20 minutes until the cabbage has begun to wilt and releases some of its juices. Use a tamper/pounder to crush the cabbage until it is wilted and has released a lot of liquid. This will takes several minutes.
- Pack the Cabbage in a Crock or Jar:Transfer the cabbage and all the juices to a glass or ceramic jar or crock a bit at a time and mash it down with a tamper. Fill the jar to about 2/3 full (the cabbage will bubble as it ferments and could overflow if the jar is too full).Continue to mash the cabbage with the tamper, releasing more juice, until the cabbage is completely submerged under the brine and any air pockets have been removed (important for preventing mold growth). If you've mashed all you can mash and you still don't have enough brine to cover the cabbage you'll need to make some supplemental liquid that is consistent with the salinity of the cabbage brine: Dissolve 2 teaspoons salt in 1/2 cup water (2 grams salt in 100 grams water) and add that to the jar until the cabbage is completely submerged under the liquid.It is imperative that the cabbage remain submerged under the brine during fermentation, otherwise mold will form (See blog section "My Sauerkraut Has Mold on it: Is it
- Ferment Your Sauerkraut:Place the jars in a dark place that is between 65-70 degrees F, the ideal temperature for fermenting. (See blog section "How Long Does it Take to Ferment Sauerkraut" for information on temperature variations.)At a the ideal temperature range of 65-70 F we recommend fermenting the cabbage for at least 2 weeks (we recommend longer) but follow your own taste.After 4 days of fermenting start tasting the cabbage daily until it reaches the desired texture and level of tanginess. Don't be alarmed if the brine becomes fizzy, this is completely normal and a positive sign of microbial activity.Note: If you're not using an airlock lid be sure to open the lid of your jar/crock every day to release the pressure and prevent your jar from exploding. The color of the cabbage will change from green to a pale yellowish beige.
- Store Your Sauerkraut: Once your sauerkraut has reached the level of tanginess that you want, it's time to screw the lid on tight (remove the airlock lid if using and replace it with a regular lid).Store the sauerkraut in the fridge or a cold cellar (storage temperature should be between 38-50 degrees F). Fermentation won't stop but it will be greatly slowed down.Stored in the fridge the sauerkraut will keep for many months. (See blog section "Does Sauerkraut Go Bad?")Eat your sauerkraut raw to reap the benefits of the probiotics or use it in any recipe calling for sauerkraut.

- Place shredded cabbage in a large bowl. Sprinkle salt over. With very clean hands (or using gloves) squeeze and mix cabbage and salt for several minutes, until it is decreased in volume and starts producing juices.
- Check to see if there is enough liquid to cover cabbage. If so, open lid and press down until cabbage is submerged. If not, add a little more water so that there is enough to cover. Press cabbage down to submerge. Cover with lid once more.

- Sterilize the jar with boiling water or wash well with warm soapy water. As you will be using your hands to massage the salt into the cabbage, ensure you wash your hands in warm soapy water.
- Remove outer leaves of the cabbage and place them on side. Then cut the cabbage into quarters and trim out the core. Shred cabbage into very thin ribbons and leave the core on side.
- Transfer the cabbage into a mixing bowl and sprinkle the salt over the top. Start massaging and squeezing cabbage with your hands until it’s soft and juicy. This will take 2-10 minutes.
- Pack the cabbage and juice into a glass jar. Ensure the cabbage is submerged below the brine of cabbage juice. Apply added pressure to the cabbage while packing to ensure that there are no trapped air pockets in the jar.

- Sterilize any equipment you will be using for fermentation, especially the jars (we prefer using mason jars or these Weck Jars that are about 850 ml). It is extremely important that everything is sterilized to allow for proper fermentation. Do so easily by pouring boiling water over clean jars and lids and drying completely. Let come back to room temperature before adding ingredients.
- Add finely grated cabbage (we used our mandolin) to a large mixing bowl and top with 1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt (or the lower end of the suggested range if making a different batch size). Wash hands thoroughly and massage cabbage for ten minutes. The cabbage should start softening, shrinking in size, and releasing water (see photo). Continue massaging until this happens.
- Add shredded beet, carrot, ginger, turmeric, and garlic and massage once more with clean hands for 4-5 minutes until thoroughly combined (see photo). Then taste test and adjust flavor, adding more salt for saltiness, grated ginger for more zing, or garlic for more intense garlic flavor.
- Use your clean hands to put the sauerkraut mixture into your sterilized jars and press down firmly to pack. There should be enough liquid from the massaging to rise up and cover the vegetables. If this doesn't happen, top with filtered water until covered (it is unlikely that you will need to add water).

- Start with the freshest cabbage you can find. Green or red head cabbage is perfect, but you can also use Napa cabbage.
- Slice, grate, or food process your cabbage of choice. I like my sauerkraut on the chunkier side, so I use a knife to coarsely chop the cabbage.
- Place the cabbage/salt in a large bowl, and massage the cabbage thoroughly, for 3-4 minutes, then let it sit for 10-15 minutes so the cabbage can release it’s natural juices.
