Ingredients:
- 1 medium-sized cabbage, shredded
- 2 tablespoons sea salt
- Filtered water
Instructions:
Shred the cabbage and add the sea salt to a large bowl
The cabbage and salt should be rubbed together for about 10 minutes, or until it gets juicy and begins to wilt
Press down hard on the cabbage with your fist or a tamper to pack it tightly into a clean glass jar
Make sure the cabbage is submerged in its own liquid all the way to the bottom
Put more filtered water on top of the cabbage if you need to
Over the cabbage, put a weight, like a small glass jar full of water, to keep it under the water
Use a rubber band to hold the clean cloth or paper towel over the jar
Check on the jar every so often for a week or two while its at room temperature and out of direct sunlight
Give the sauerkraut a taste in one to two weeks
Place the jar in the fridge once the level of sourness you want is reached
You can keep the sauerkraut in the fridge for up to a few months
