Lacto Fermented Sauerkraut
1. Chop or grate cabbage, finely or coarsely. Place cabbage in a large strainer as you chop it then rinse with cold water and dry and transfer to large bowl.
2. Sprinkle salt and caraway on the cabbage as you go. Mix together and pound with hammer for about 5 minutes to release juices.
3. Spoon into your mason jar while intermittently pressing the cabbage down firmly with the hammer until the juices come to the top. The cabbage should come 1 inch below the top of the jar.
4. Squeeze some fresh lemon juice on the top.
5.. Place the lid firmly on the mason jar and let sit at room temperature for about 3 days.
6.. Transfer to refrigerator (where it will keep for months and continue to ferment) and enjoy plain, on sandwiches, or any way you like.
* 1 medium cabbage cored and shredded (any color)
* 1 tb sea salt
* 1 tb caraway seeds (optional)
