Comment préparer Sauerkraut Nourishing Traditions

Core and finely shred 1 medium head of green cabbage (about 1 kg).
In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage with 2 tablespoons caraway seeds, 2 tablespoons sea salt, and 1/2 cup whey (optional, but enhances fermentation).
Using a wooden pounder or meat hammer, gently pound the cabbage for 10-15 minutes, or until it releases a significant amount of liquid. Alternatively, use your hands to thoroughly massage the cabbage and extract juices.
Pack the cabbage mixture tightly into a clean 1-quart wide-mouth mason jar, pressing firmly with a pounder or clean spoon to ensure it's submerged in its own juices. Add more salt if needed.
Ensure the top of the cabbage is at least 1 inch below the rim of the jar. If the cabbage is not fully submerged, add a small weight to keep it under the brine.
Cover the jar tightly with a lid. Allow it to ferment at room temperature (ideally 68-72°F) for 3-5 days, checking daily. You will see bubbles forming. This is a sign of active fermentation.
After 3-5 days, taste test and if it reaches the desired sourness, transfer it to the refrigerator to slow or stop the fermentation process. The flavor will continue to develop over time. Enjoy!
For longer storage, after 3-5 days move to a colder environment (Refrigerator). Your sauerkraut will improve in taste and texture with age. Enjoy!
