ABOUT Homemade Sauerkraut RECIPE

I searched for the recipe and it’s very easy to make it at home, so I got cabbage and made this. Sauerkraut is nothing but fermented sour cabbage, it's widely used here in US for hot dogs as a condiment, but you can use it as a side dish too. To give some color, I have added one carrot as well. I am sharing these recipes because we didn't find recipes which belongs to #UC patients.

Ingredients Serving: 4

1/2 head of the cabbage- finely chopped lengthwise
1 carrot grated
2 tbsp sea salt
2 tbsp whey

Instructions

In a big pot, add cabbage and carrot, then add sea salt and whey. Mix it with hands to release water from the cabbage.
Put it in glass jar, then cover it and put it away in a dark place. Check after 3-4 days when it starts to get fermented to see if its fermented enough as per your desire.
You can leave it for 1-6 months for fermentation. Once done, put it it in the fridge and you can use it for 6 months to 1 year.
Divide this into small containers so you don't mess it with the whole jar. Use it only with a clean spoon and store the rest in the fridge.
