We offer a recipe for sauerkraut for 3 liter jar- the same volume, which is quite enough for the family to heartily enjoy fresh vitamin dish and don't get tired of it. With cranberries and beets, in the Korean and Georgian ways, it's easy to cook every week and enjoy the variety. Let's discover the secrets of cooking delicious, spicy, crispy sauerkraut.
Sauerkraut - original Russian dish. You will not meet her abroad, no matter how much you look in supermarkets. But in Russia it has been eaten for many centuries, and it was cabbage that remained the main source of vitamins in winter: when cooking and stewing, “cabbage” useful material are destroyed, and when fermented, on the contrary, they multiply rapidly. And yes, it keeps well.
For information: vitamin P (namely, it is considered the main defender of the human immune system) in sauerkraut becomes 20 times more than in raw cabbage. Let's move from words to deeds. We will learn how to ferment cabbage so that it does not get bitter and remains crisp for a long time.
Loose porous heads of cabbage are not suitable for fermentation; head of cabbage should be dense; it is preferable to choose late varieties: they have more sugar, which speeds up the fermentation process; cabbage should have dense glossy leaves without thick veins.
For sourdough (based on 2 liters), we will prepare:
First, let's chop the cabbage. Our task is to make it as thin as possible: thick pieces will be salted much longer and the taste will come out worse. You can make your work easier if you divide the head of cabbage into four parts with a sharp knife, and cut each quarter separately. We rub the carrots on a grater. Add salt to cabbage. The calculation here is simple: for 1 kg of cabbage, it is important to put one tbsp. l salt without a slide.
Salt for sourdough needs to be bought simple; it is important that it be large: extra will not work.
Now it is important to wash the cabbage with salt so that it releases some juice. Add carrots to cabbage. Putting a lot of carrots is dangerous. It will not only add unnecessary sweetness, but also give the cabbage a bad “soapy” structure. Sprinkle vegetables with cumin seeds, add pepper and parsley, if you like them.
Thoroughly wash the glass jar, clean with soda, scald with boiling water. We fill a glass jar with cabbage, and ram it with force. The jar should be filled up to the shoulders, but there should be room for cabbage juice. Now we cover the jar with a lid (preferably nylon with holes), and keep it in the room for three days. The light bubbles that appear on the surface and light foam will tell us that the process has begun.
In case the variety turned out to be low-juicy, you can always add a little boiled salted water to the jar; it is important that the cabbage is completely immersed in the brine.
Every day we pierce it with a long stick (it is possible from land): this is how bubbles of hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide will come out. Forget to pierce: the cabbage will turn out bitter. Two or three days and it needs to be put in the refrigerator or on the balcony. Snack is ready!
Such simple recipe considered classic. It has been used by mothers and grandmothers for centuries. He will never let you down, cabbage always turns out delicious. Best served with onions, fragrant sunflower oil and boiled potatoes. It's so tasty dish that no padding is required. And yes - do not forget to cook sour cabbage soup with cabbage. A fabulous dish for winter!
Cabbage in a 3-liter jar can be cooked in brine: the recipe helps out when there is no time to wait, but you really want cabbage. In this case, you do not need to press by hand, because the marinade will add moisture to the dish.
The ideal temperature for the sourdough process is 20-21 degrees; if the temperature in the room is lower, it will ferment longer, and in a too hot room, cabbage can become slimy.
We act in stages:
The last stage is to rearrange everything on the balcony and eat, pouring fragrant sunflower oil on it.
Fermenting crispy cabbage for the winter with a slight taste of horseradish is simply elementary!
We chop the vegetable in the same way as in the classic recipe, but with the difference that we will rub the cabbage and carrots with our hands at the same time until the juice is plentiful. Now we fill clean three-liter jar, tightly tamping vegetables with a fist. The jar must be filled to the "shoulders". We put a cabbage leaf on top of vegetables of such a size that it covers the entire surface.
Sprinkle everything generously with coarse rock salt. We fill boiled water so that the water covers the surface of the vegetables a little more than a finger thick. We put the jar on a plate: if the juice starts to run away during fermentation, the table will not get dirty. We leave it on the table for two days. After 48 hours, foam will begin to appear and it is important to remove it.
We will also pierce the cabbage several times with a stick to the very bottom of the jar, freeing it from excess carbon dioxide. Ready cabbage has pleasant sourness and how it crunches! We enjoy the dish as a salad or side dish for meat - it is just perfect for any meat dish with pork, remaining a gastronomic classic.
Spicy cabbage is a favorite snack for males. And few people know: in the East it is extremely popular. Egyptian supermarkets sell specific cabbage, pickled in pieces or whole (it all depends on the size) in company with other vegetables: beets, green beans, carrots, chili peppers.
We will prepare an option for hastily. To do this, add one red hot pepper, cut into slices, into a mixture of chopped cabbage and carrots. It is better to clean the seeds, otherwise the sharpness will literally “roll over the top” and the cabbage will turn into “pull out the eye”.
Pour a liter of boiled water into the jar, add a generous pinch of rock salt and leave it warm until the fermentation process begins. After that, we wait a couple more days and remove the container in the cold.
Georgian cuisine is famous not only for khachapuri and kharcho. Georgians have national snack, which is known to the whole world, but it is easy to repeat. This is cabbage sauerkraut with beets, spices and herbs.
Let's prepare a medium-sized fork of cabbage, three beets, two carrots, hot chili, garlic (you can do a lot!), a bunch of cilantro or celery (or both), salt, sugar, vinegar and drinking water. Useful for spices Bay leaf, black and allspice peas, salt with sugar to taste.
We prepare a snack like this:
After a day, we transfer the snack to a jar and put it in the refrigerator. It will turn out a delicious, spicy dish, appropriate for any feast, especially if served with hot potatoes.
Pickled cabbage with vinegar comes out spicy and spicy, somewhat reminiscent of Korean version(read the recipe below). At the same time, it is really possible to significantly simplify the process if you add a little vinegar essence diluted in water.
To prepare pickled cabbage with vinegar, we fill the jar tightly, and then pour in one and a half liters of water with a teaspoon acetic acid. Leave to marinate for a day and take a sample. It is better to add a little sugar to such cabbage, then the taste will turn out to be harmonious and piquant.
Korean salads are a real hit on every table. They are eaten first, and are especially great when they are cooked on their own. Korean cabbage is easy to prepare from any type - white, cauliflower, Beijing and even red cabbage: every time the taste will be delicious. It is allowed to cut cabbage, as your heart desires, even in slices, even in strips, there is only one secret - in a special marinade.
Also for cooking we need a pod of red hot pepper, garlic, and, ideally, a special set of spices (it is sold in supermarkets and shops with goods from Asia).
We act in steps:
Korean appetizer, thanks to vinegar, does not deteriorate for a long time. If you cook it at the end of January, then the dish is suitable for treats on March 8.
Ferment cabbage in own juice it’s easy if you don’t add boiled water to the mixture of carrots and cabbage, but leave it to infuse and wait until the component itself releases a lot of juice. The recipe is very simple and completely repeats classic version, although in this case you will have to knead it harder with your hands. Mnem and repeat the sequence from the first recipe.
Cabbage juice from sauerkraut in its own juice - excellent remedy for skin whitening; and it also heals the gastric mucosa and can be safely drunk on an empty stomach.
Be careful: it is important to watch cabbage in its own juice carefully, not allowing it to ferment. As soon as the fermentation process began, you need to wait a day and clean it in the cold, otherwise it will peroxide.

For the right marinade keep the proportions:
Boil water on the stove, season with salt, sugar, add vinegar and vegetable oil. Pour in hot pickle in a jar of cabbage. We cover loosely nylon cover. We leave it on the kitchen table. After a few hours we take a sample - spicy and spicy cabbage you should like it.
Crispy cabbage with cranberries used to be served all the time. This is real vitamin bomb: both cranberries and cabbage are simply record holders for the content of vitamin C. We need no more than 150 g of cranberries per 3-liter jar. By the way, it is quite possible to take not fresh, but frozen berries - cabbage will not lose from this.
An important ingredient in the recipe natural honey; it must be put 3 tbsp. l; you will hardly feel the sweetness, but the taste of sauerkraut will become much richer.
It is not necessary to put bay leaves, peppercorns: cabbage will turn out amazingly tasty without that. It is eaten separately, as the appetizer turns out to be self-sufficient and does not need additions. Cabbage - perfect side dish to roast goose, duck and chicken.
Sauerkraut - budget dish and you can cook all year round. Some housewives are actively experimenting. There are fans of sauerkraut with sour apples(the Antonovka variety is ideal), there are those who ferment cabbage with black and red currants. We are sure that every hostess has signature recipe which she inherited from her grandmother. Experiment and you, indulge your loved ones with a tasty and healthy winter dish.

We offer you very tasty proven sauerkraut recipes for a 3 liter jar, which are easy to prepare and convenient to store.
To date, there are many recipes for sauerkraut. The most common is the traditional version, when shredded cabbage is mixed with carrots and salt, and then squeezed with a mortar or simply by hand until juice appears, as well as a variant with brine. In the second case, chopped cabbage with carrots is simply poured with a prepared solution of salt, sugar and seasonings and aged to the desired taste.

Add warm water and stir until completely dissolved.
Pour the brine into a jar with cabbage that has not been manually transferred.
We tie the neck of the cans with gauze folded in several layers. Cabbage ferments for about 2-3 days. During this time, each of the cans should be opened and mixed at least two or three times in order to allow the gases that form as a result of the leaven to escape. If this is not done, the cabbage may rot.
It's time to try sauerkraut. In the first, traditional version it turned out softer and sourer
in the second case, the cabbage crunches and has the aroma of added spices, but does not differ in special acid.

Good afternoon. Today we will talk about very healthy dish, which came to us from time immemorial - sauerkraut. And we will ferment it, of course, at home.
In the process of fermentation (fermentation), the sugar that is in the leaves of this vegetable is converted into lactic acid. And here are unique properties buys this dish: lactic acid bacteria, getting into the intestines along with cabbage, improve its functioning, suppress harmful microflora and eliminate dysbacteriosis.
Kvashenina has a positive effect on immune system, lowers cholesterol levels in the blood, improves skin condition. It can be used to make salads, as well as filling for dumplings or pies. And you can stew with meat or mushrooms. But all beneficial bacteria during heat treatment, unfortunately, will die.

4. Fill a three-liter jar alternately with layers of cabbage and apples (it is very convenient to do this through a funnel), while tightly tamping everything with the help of a “crusher” or other improvised means.
5. In a jar filled to the narrowing of the neck, I place a nylon lid for cold products upside down as an oppression. She does not allow the cabbage to rise up by pressing it.
6. Place the jar in a deep bowl and leave for 3 days at room temperature, while piercing the contents with a wooden stick every day (otherwise the dish will be bitter). You need to store sauerkraut under a tightly closed nylon lid in the refrigerator or in a dark, cool place, such as a cellar. Bon appetit!
