Looking for Sauerkraut Recipes
I bought a large head of cabbge and I want to make sauerkraut. So first I went to Allrecipes.com
and got a lot of recipes with things to do with sauerkraut, but not how to make it. It’s amazing how many chocolate cake recipes there are that use sauerkraut. It didn’t help me, though.
So I Googled “how to make sauerkraut” and got a few results I liked.
- This is from the University of Wisconsin Cooperative extension. This is pretty in-depth.
- Making Sauerkraut by Vertex. A basic recipe.
- Making Sauerkraut from Walon Feed. Another basic Recipe.
- Food for Thought – With care, sauerkraut can be made in a jar.
- Dave’s Sauerkraut Page is about making a party our of making sauerkraut.
- Wild Fermentation: Making Sauerkraut is from Sander Katz. I’m probably going to get his book.
So basically, to make sauerkraut, you need 5 things: a crock or bucket, shredded cabbage, salt, a weight, and time. It takes about 2 weeks to complete fermentation. And this is the perfect time of year to make it.
