Step 1

Shred fresh cabbage, finely with a sharp knife or mandolin.

Step 2

Massage cabbage with 2 teaspoons of the salt in a bowl, tasting and adding more until you taste salt but not overwhelmingly salty.  (Let sit 30 minutes, if needed to extract more juices).

Step 3

Transfer to your vessel and pack tightly with a tamper or your fist.

Step 4

Leave 3 inches of space between brine level and top of jar.  Top with one or two cabbage leaves to keep shreds from floating above the brine add fermentation weight if desired.

Step 5

Check progress daily making sure cabbage is still submerged and taste for doneness starting day  It will generally take anywhere from 3 days to 2 weeks, depending on your flavor preference.  It will get more sour as it ferments.

Step 6

You will know that it is adequately fermented when it looks lighter in color, with a pleasant tangy flavor and not overly salty.

Step 7

Store in the refrigerator, with a sealed lid.
