Why Ferment Cabbage to Make Sauerkraut?

Homemade sauerkraut is a wonderful nutrient-rich food that is slightly tangy and a touch effervescent.

Sauerkraut makes the perfect accompaniment to any meal because sauerkraut is high in good bacteria called probiotics, as well as enzymes.  Both aid the digestive tract by improving gut health and assisting with digestion, allowing for our bodies to better absorb nutrients from the food we eat.

Ingredients

  • 1 head Cabbage
  • 2 tablespoon Coarse ground Celtic sea salt
  • 1 Apple
  • 1 Filtered water

Instructions

  • Remove a few outer leaves of the head of cabbage and reserve.
  • Cut the head of cabbage in half and cut out the core. Reserve the core.
  • Slice each half of the head of cabbage into thin strips.
  • Place the shredded cabbage and the salt in a bowl and pound with a “kraut pounder” (see video) or similar utensil, such as a potato masher, for approximately 5 minutes until the cabbage begins to release some of its juices.
  • Place the shredded cabbage and salt mixture in a half gallon sized jar that has a lid.
  • Quarter the apple and remove the core and seeds. Coarsely chop and add to a blender.
  • Coarsely chop the core of the cabbage and also add to the blender.
  • Add water to the blender sufficient to cover the chopped apple and cabbage core. Whirl in the blender to make a slurry.
  • Add the apple/cabbage core slurry to the shredded cabbage and salt mixture in the half gallon jar.
  • Stir the mixture together in the jar and then press it down to compact it. (If you prefer, you can do this in a bowl and then transfer it to the jar. However, I do find it is better to do this in the jar so that you are assured of having the correct amount of cabbage with the correct amount of salt. If you do this in a bowl, you may not be able to precisely know how much cabbage will fit into the jar.)
  • Take the reserved cabbage leaves and fold them and put them into the half gallon jar on top of the shredded cabbage mixture.
  • Take a small 4-ounce glass jelly jar and put it into the half gallon jar on top of the folded cabbage leaves. The jelly jar will work as a weight to hold the entire mixture underwater.
  • Add additional water, if needed, to reach the neck of the half gallon jar allowing for approximately 1 inch of headspace. Place the lid on the jar.
  • Place the filled half gallon jar in an undisturbed place such as the corner of a kitchen counter, on top of a refrigerator, or in a cabinet or pantry that has a room temperature range somewhere between 68°F and 72°F. (SEE "RECIPE NOTES" BELOW.) The jar should also be out of direct sunlight as ferments do not like temperature fluctuations.
  • After a few days, the cabbage should begin to ferment and you should see bubbles in the jar. Release the cap of the jar to allow some of the carbon dioxide, produced by the fermentation process, to be released. Re-tighten the jar lid.
  • Re-check the jar every day and release some of the carbon dioxide by loosening the lid. Then re-tighten the lid.
  • After 7 days, taste the Sauerkraut. Keep in mind that it will continue to ferment once placed in the refrigerator. If you like the taste, refrigerate it. It's now ready to enjoy. If you are not satisfied with the level of fermentation, allow it to continue to ferment up to 14 days at room temperature before refrigerating. I do not recommend fermenting the cabbage longer than 14 days as it may become quite soft and less palatable.
  • Please note that initially vegetable ferments can taste a bit salty. However, over time, the ferment will become less salty as the vegetable – in this case cabbage – absorbs the brine creating a more flavorful vegetable, and the brine clinging to the ferment will taste less salty.
  • As to storage, vegetable ferments need to be stored at 40°F. This can be on the top shelf of your refrigerator or in the door of your refrigerator. They can not be stored at room temperature.

Notes

Fermentation Tips for the Beginner: Vegetable ferments, such as sauerkraut, are best fermented between 68°F and 72°F.  However, they can tolerate slightly warmer temperatures up to about 75°F.  If your kitchen is warmer, limit the days you allow your vegetable to ferment to approximately 3 days.  This will decrease the chance of mold or bad bacteria developing.  After approximately 3 days fermenting at a warmer room temperature, refrigerate your ferment and allow it to continue its fermentation process under refrigeration.  Fermentation will take at least 2 weeks longer, but you will be more successful if attempting fermentation during the warmer months. 
Healthy Fermentation Tip: For an added gut health benefit, be sure to drink some of the “Kraut Juice”, the liquid that accumulates in the jar in which you made the sauerkraut. The juice is teaming with good bacteria! If you can’t fathom drinking kraut juice, use some of it in place of the vinegar in your favorite homemade salad dressing or save it to use with your next ferment.

    Hi Mary
    I followed your recipe for sauerkraut and made my first batch 5 days ago. The first day I released the gas and retightened the lid. After day three, I noticed the cabbage in the neck of the 1/2 gallon jar looks a brownish color.
    Is this from the apple, normal or does it mean my batch may be bad?
    I am waiting for 7 days before I open, remove the weighted jar and top cabbage leaves to taste it.

      Hi Evan, Thank you so much for your comment. Without seeing a picture, it’s hard for me to tell exactly. Ferments can be so persnickety! Sometimes there is discoloration if something pops up from under the brine and is not submerged. This is not necessarily be a bad thing – however – you need to keep an eye out for mold. Is there anything fuzzy looking? If not, you should be OK. Hope this helps. Keep me posted. Have you seen my playlist all about making different fermented vegetables? You can look through it here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLkRuW3pBo2U2EhVspEV5d4Xs2s4pcbHbr I think you will enjoy these videos.

    Hi Mary
    More info on above request.
    On the first day I twisted lid and released the gas and retightened the lid several times. The next day twice a day instead of your instructions to do once a day. Could this have caused the brownish color at top of jar or is it possible I contaminated it? The cabbage in lower 90% of jar looks good.

        Hi Christine, That’s a great question. I think you should be OK but if you think you have left any brine behind, you can top your jars with a bit of salt as an insurance policy.

    Hi Mary,

    Just wanted to let you know I followed your instructions (Apple and all) and – let it ferment for 5 days – and the kraut came out wonderfully. I basically did it in real time with you in the video – haha. You made an otherwise intimidating recipe apprehensible – thank you!

    Hi Mary
    I live in South Africa and our local cabbages are much bigger-looking than that in your you Tube video. I only used half a one but my sauerkraut, although delicious, is a touch salty. Could you please give me an average weight for the cabbage so I can get the ratio right next time?
    Thank you so much.

    • Mary's Nest says

      April 5, 2020 at 9:35 am

      Hi Sally, you want about a 2% salinity rate. So, if you have approximately a 3 pound cabbage that would mean 2 tablespoons of a course ground sea salt or 1 tablespoon of a fine ground see salt. That said, ferments will be salty in the beginning. But once you put it into your refrigerator it will mellow over the coming weeks. Keep me posted. Let me know how it all turns out. Love, Mary❤️🤗❤️

      You don’t need to sterilize your jars and lids but they do need to have been washed well in hot soapy water and left to air dry. Hope this helps. The bottom line is you just want your jars to be very clean…
      So that you don’t introduce any bad bacteria. Love, Mary

      Hi Jeanne, Thanks for visiting. Yes, you can use any coarse sea salt – or fine sea salt, just half the amount. You want to avoid processed salts that contain chemicals or anti-caking agents which will interfere with the fermentation process. Do you enjoy making other traditional foods?

    Hi Mary!
    I made the Sauerkraut a few weeks ago. Followed the recipe to a “T,” and it turned out beautifully! I had some red cabbage left over, so I chose to use a half head of red cabbage and half green. The color is gorgeous! Homemade Sauerkraut, at least your recipe anyway, is sooo much tastier than canned! Plus the gradification factor of having made it myself added to my delight! Thank you so much for the detailed video and recipe. It made me feel much more comfortable trying what I considered a daunting DIY recipe. I look forward to making more of your recipes! In fact, I plan on using the extra time at home in this period of “Social Distancing” to delve into learning more of the lost ways-type of projects and recipes.
    Take Care and Stay Well!

    I have not tried this recipe yet but I was wondering how often you need to replace the lid you use during fermentation? The canning lids are supposedly single use but I was hoping I could use them again after one batch of sauerkraut. What is your recommendation?

      Hi Emma, Fermentation and canning are different so I think you would be able to re-use the canning lids for fermentation with no problem. Love, Mary

    Hi Mary, I made the sauerkraut according to your instructions and everything was going well up until the morning of the 5-6th day. There was a good inch of liquid at the top which was bubbling away nicely. I burped the jar every day and some of the liquid was leaking out on the plate underneath. This morning the liquid in the top has disappeared. Can I remedy this somehow. Kraut tastes ok but would like to leave it ferment for another couple days.

      Hi Michele, Please forgive the delay! You can do one of two things. You can press down on the kraut to see if it will release any more liquid. If not, you can top it off with a bit of salted water and allow it to continue to ferment. Keep me posted on how it turns out. Love, Mary

    Hi Mary! Today my daughter and I have put up fermented salsa, fermented cucumber pickles, fermented carrots, and now we are getting ready to do the sauerkraut. Thank you so much for the wealth of fermenting knowledge you’ve shared with us! It has been a huge help and great motivation. BTW, you’ve got a typo in step 3 of your instructions… I don’t think you really want us slicing up our baggage! 😂 Blessings! ❤️
