I always have some sauerkraut in the fridge. I use 2.5 pounds of cabbage, 1 Tbsp. of salt, and . . . that's it. Get a 2-quart Mason jar. Finely chop the cabbage. Sprinkle on the salt and toss well. Leave it for a few hours. Wash your hands and manually squeeze the juice from the cabbage. Place the cabbage in the jar, pour in the cabbage juice, and add enough water so it just covers the cabbage. Place jar in a dark cupboard and check the pressure frequently for the first 2 days. You do this by pressing on the center of the Mason lid: if you can't depress the lid with a little "pop" sound, take the jar to the sink and unscrew the lid to let the gas out. Your sauerkraut should be ready in about 5 days. Experts age it, but I don't know how.
