Making traditional sauerkraut yourself is delicious, but you have to have time for it. The process of making sauerkraut takes at least 6 weeks. Don’t have that time and don’t want sauerkraut from a bag? Then this recipe is recommended. This sauerkraut differs from traditional sauerkraut because it does not contain healthy bacteria, which are created during the fermentation process of traditional sauerkraut. But on the other hand, there is little salt in this sauerkraut.
