you will need a very large crock , glass or enamel container, heavy duty plastic bucket or even wood, all must be totally clean, put through a dishwasher or clean with the hottest water if you can), minimum of 2 heads of cabbage ( about a total of 5 lbs ), may be regular or savoy or 1 part red cabbage to 3 parts green, kosher , or sea salt, or use salt which has no additives, no anti caking, no iodine etc., not table salt which causes a soft and limp outcome, sometimes pickling or canning salt will change taste and texture too, i simply use kosher salt, some tips here to prevent problems ( molds and yeasts ) with your sauerkraut, never use aluminum utensils, absolute cleanliness is necessary for a healthy brew, prepare the cabbage , remove and discard the outer leaves., wash and drain and then cut the cabbages into halves or quarters while removing the core in the process., step 1), shred cabbage - may use food processor for speed and ease., if you shred by hand , make sure the shreds are no thicker than a nickel or dime, step 2), mix, with wooden spoon or very clean hands, 5 lb of shredded cabbage with 4 tbsp of kosher salt and toss and mix thoroughly until kosher salt dissolves, you can make as much as you wish as long as you use the ratio of 5 lbs. cabbage to 4 tbsp. salt.), step 3), when juice starts to form on cabbage from tossing - pack the cabbage firmly and evenly into a clean crock, glass or enamel container., press firmly to encourage juice formation ., fill the utensil no closer than 5 inches from the top ., step 4), make sure juice covers the cabbage completely!
