HOW TO SOUR A CABBAGE - SOUR CABBAGE

Steps:

• Clean the whole heads of cabbage and trim off the hard hearts. The easiest way to do this is to make 4 cuts (square-shaped) deep around the heart
• Once the fibrous and hard part of the cabbage has been removed, fill the gaps with sea salt
• Make the brine. Use a 1:1 ratio of water to salt. That is 1 tablespoon of salt for every 1 liter of water
• Place the cabbage in a jar and cover it with the brine so that the liquid covers the cabbage. If you need to make more brine do so, it must be 100% covered
• Finally, we put a weight on top to keep the cabbage low and not float
• Let stand for 4 to 15 days in a dark place
