List of Ingredients
HOMEMADE SAUERKRAUT
With large knife, cut clean cabbages in half, then slice into
thin shreads. Pack the cut cabbage into sterilized one quart
glass, canning jars. Add 1 tsp. salt and fill with boiling
water. Put on sterilized canning lids, and tighten. Put the
sauerkraut aside to "work" for a few weeks. Be sure to place
jars in something to collect any juice that might run out.
When it stops "working" it is done. Keep in a cool, dry
place; or freeze for later use.
The PA Dutch cook sauerkraut with a pork roast, and serve it
with real mashed potatoes. It is traditional for New Year's
Day for good luck. Variation: cooking sauerkraut with
fresh or smoked sausage. Cook well, several hours.
[This homemade sauerkraut is milder tasting than commercially canned.]
