I know it’s a bit late for this, but better late than never and you know, you can eat this any time of year!
Ingredients:
1/2 large white cabbage
3 apples
2 tsp. cloves
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
1/2 tsp. mixed spice
1 tsp. of Himalayan salt
Directions:
- Using a food processor on the shredding/grating function grate the cabbage and apples. Save the outer leaf of the cabbage.
- Add to a large bowl with all the other ingredients and mix well.
- Squeeze the juice/brine from the cabbage and apples.
- Add everything, including the juice/brine into a sterlised jar and pack down well.
- Make sure there is at least 2cm gap at the top of the jar.
- Add more water if the juice/brine does not come above the kraut mixture.
- Cut the cabbage leaf into a slightly bigger shape than the jar and tuck it down around the edge of the kraut mixture in the jar, making sure everything, including the leaf is below the juice/brine level.
- Clear all the bits off the inside of the jar and put the lid on.
- Burp/open the jar every day for the first week to allow the gases to escape (this is very important).
- Consume once gasing has stopped (around a week) and place in fridge once you start eating fro the jar.
