Homemade Sauerkraut


Today we bring you the recipe of the sauerkraut so that you can do it at home, since it is a healthy food for our intestine because it is a natural probiotic, and it can not be easier to do!

Ingredients:
- 1/2 cabbage
- 2 tablespoons of sea salt

Recipe:
- Wash the cabbage well, cut one of the outer leaves and reserve it.
- Remove the stem of the cabbage.
- Cut all the cabbage leaves in julienne. You can do it with a mandolin or by hand with a knife, like us.


- Place the cabbage in a large bowl and add the salt.
- Mix well with one hand and go squeezing the cabbage to help him "sweat".
- Let it stand for an hour and then remove the broth that has come out.
- Pass the cabbage to a large glass jar and tighten it well with the handle of a mortar so there is no air left.


- Place the whole leaf that we had reserved at the beginning and then tighten again with the handle of the mortar.


- Close the jar well and leave it in a dark place for 15 days to ferment.


- Do not fill the whole boat because when fermenting, it will release liquid and if it does not have space, it can get out of the jar.
- After 15 days, it will be fermented and ready to eat.


Bon appétit!
