cabbage

🥗Healthier: savoy cabbage

💰Cheaper: green cabbage

Savoy cabbage offers a milder flavor and is often more affordable.

salt

🥗Healthier: sea salt

💰Cheaper: table salt

Sea salt can enhance flavor while being a more natural option.

Shred the cabbage finely and place it in a large bowl.

Grate the carrots and add them to the cabbage.

Sprinkle salt over the cabbage and carrots, then mix thoroughly to combine.

Massage the mixture for several minutes until the cabbage begins to release its juices.

Transfer the mixture to a clean fermentation jar, packing it tightly.

Add caraway seeds or dill to the jar according to taste.

Pour enough water over the mixture to cover it completely.

Seal the jar loosely to allow gases to escape during fermentation.

Let the jar sit at room temperature for 1-4 weeks, checking periodically for taste.

Once fermented to your liking, transfer the jar to the refrigerator to slow fermentation.
