Instructions
 

  • Remove outer layers of cabbage and finely shred the cabbage.
  • Add to a bowl and spread salt over it.
  • Massage for 2 minutes let rest for 10 minutes
  • Repeat 2 more times. Make sure you really massage it to release all the water from the cabbage.
  • Place cabbage in your mason jar and pour the leftover brine on top, making sure it completely covers the cabbage.
  • Place a cabbage leaf you already removed on top and place your weight on top as well as your fermenting lid.
  • Let ferment in a cool place for 3 days.
  • After this you can put it in the fridge. It will last up to 4 months refrigerated.
