sauerkraut for the winter to be crispy

Today you will learn how to make sauerkraut for the winter in cans so that it is crisp. Recently, I began to make sauerkraut in cans under a simplified recipe. You know, to taste such cabbage, I like it a lot more, since it always turns out crispy, juicy and tasty. The very same recipe is so simplified and it does not take much time that you will like it, I do not even doubt it.

For the preparation of this vegetable snack, I recommend using only white cabbage. It tastes juicy, and it is used for fermentation. Pickled cabbage time is autumn or winter.

In order to get the cabbage to your taste, you should daily poke it with a wooden stick. This will ensure the release of gases. What is this procedure for, you ask? The fact is that if you do not do this procedure, the cabbage will come to taste bitter. Therefore, this moment is the most important in the fermentation of vegetables. Do not neglect them and do not forget in any case to do what is written above.

Ingredients:

  • cabbage - 1 head;
  • salt - 1 tsp;
  • sugar - 1 tsp;
  • carrots - 1 piece;
  • water - as much as fit in a jar of cabbage.

    I did not understand: pour water (in the photo is clearly not from the kettle) - does this mean pour boiling water? Why is it then written about "plum boiling water"? Inaccuracy at the beginning (pour water instead of boiling water) or a typo (boiling water instead of brine) in the middle?
