Sauerkraut With Caraway Seeds

Sauerkraut is one of the easiest ferments to make. Jennifer McGruther

With its vibrant flavor, like a cross between pepper, citrus, and parsley, caraway brings a beautiful note to this easy sauerkraut recipe.

Makes about 1 quart

• 2 pounds cabbage (about 1 head)
• 4 teaspoons fine sea salt
• 2 tablespoons caraway seeds

Remove any bruised or damaged exterior leaves from your cabbage, and then slice it in half crosswise. Remove the cabbage’s core, and then slice the cabbage into strips no wider than 1/8-inch thick.
