Fermentation is patience made edible.
Sauerkraut Basics
Shredded cabbage, salt, and time. Pack tightly in a jar. Burp daily for the first week.
Safety First
Use clean jars. Discard anything that smells rotten rather than sour. White mold on top can be skimmed.
Start Small
One quart jar. Ready in two to three weeks at room temperature.
