Basic Sauerkraut Fermentation Demonstration & Weck Jar Tutorial
*As you can see this 1.5L Weck jar fits approximately 1.5Kg of vegetables.
*There are many variations to sauerkraut this is just a simple mix that I decided to show as I had these ingredients in the garden.
*I've aimed for 3% Salt (I wouldn't use anything other than Himalayan Pink Salt or Celtic Sea Salt), so for 1500g vegetables this is 45g salt (the research supports 1.5-3% salt, I like saltier, the salt will slow the fermentation process down however, but also acts as more of a deterrent to pathological bacteria)
*pop on over to the website www.holisticlifestyler.com for further information on the topic of fermentation, which will be added to regularly.
