How I make my Sauerkraut

• All you need to do is cut the cabbage into thin slices
• Pack it into a jar, plastic bucket or basin, stainless steel pan, or what-ever vessel that you already have. Don’t use aluminum.
• Add a tablespoon of salt of salt for every five pounds.
• Hammer it down with your fists, or use any vegetable smasher. Get angry and really make the juice come out.
• Mix in the salt and press the mixture down until the juice comes out.
• As a last resort add a small amount of water–just enough water to cover the batch.

Press it down every day. After a few days, the bubbles and delicious smells will begin. Eat whenever your appetite overpowers your mental refraining  powers

Know when it is done

The fermenting period takes about 28 days to complete all four stages–but it may be all gone before that. You can always start a new batch if you eat it all too soon.

This can remain on the table at room temperature or just set it in the corner. Don’t refrigerate until after it is all done fermenting. It will keep all summer in the refrigerator.
