Ingredients
- green cabbage 2-4 lbs
- salt 1.5-2 tsp per lb
Intro
Useful way to process cabbage. Homemade is always so much better than storebought.
Directions
- Retain one of the larger outer cabbage leaves.
- Shred the cabbage, or thinly slice it. Add the salt to the cabbage and mix it together in a bowl. Let sit for 15 minutes, then massage the cabbage for about 5 minutes, letting out a bunch of water.
- Stuff the cabbage into a mason jar, and pour the water over it, making sure that the water covers cabbage.
- Cut the retained leaf to match the opening of the jar, and place it inside, along with a weight to keep the cabbage down below the water line.
- Add the water lock and let ferment for 1-3 weeks.
