made sauerkraut and it's fantastic

can't believe how easy it is, pretty cheap, and after i took my first bite and didn't get sick i was pretty damn happy about the whole thing

remove one cabbage leaf for later, slice up a head of cabbage (got mine on sale for 49 cents/pound)

massage and knead in kosher salt

jam it in a jar (i used a mason jar) with spices (i used caraway and juniper)

make sure the liquid it makes covers it and get all the air out. put that one cabbage leaf on top

put lid on jar and put jar in cool dark place. put it on a plate or pie tin, it will overflow. burp it (remove lid, put lid back on) once a day for two weeks

cover and put in fridge.

that's it.

here's a fun video that might make more sense
