Vanilla and Rosebuds Kraut - Version II

Here's a twist on the original favorite...
And you can also make our Cultured Love Potion Cocktail using the fermented brine from this recipe!

Ingredients:

  • 1-1/4 pounds green cabbage, finely shredded
  • 1-1/2 Tablespoons sea salt
  • 1 whole crisp apple (I like Fuji), cored and diced or sliced into matchsticks
  • 1/3 cup organic rose buds
  • 3 to 5 whole juniper berries
  • 1/2 whole vanilla bean

Directions:

1. Place the shredded cabbage into a large wooden, stainless steel, or glass bowl.
2. Add salt and massage into cabbage for about 5 minutes.
3. Add in rest of the ingredients, and mix well.
4. Pack mixture into a quart-size, wide-mouth mason jar, by using a kraut pounder or end of a rolling pin.
(Ingredients should reach the shoulder of the jar.)
5. Place your Kraut Source unit onto the mason jar according to directions.
6. Allow to ferment for 7- 10 days.

@Tess Gleason: thanks for catching the missing information in our recipe! It’s been updated to suggest dicing or slicing the apple. You can see a visual in the second image.

Do you put the whole apple into the jar if so won’t it get seeds and stem pieces in the kraut?

I really want this for the Cultured Love Potion Cocktail but I also may like a sweet kraut.
