Traditional Chinese sauerkraut practice

After being acquired, these pitted pickles were pulled to the production workshop one after another, and the preservative content was ten times higher. This is a large domestic enterprise, which is really a disaster for the country and the people, and it is not shallow. The export is afraid of fines, but domestic consumers can fool around at will, which is really reprehensible.

Sauerkraut has been a delicacy on our table since ancient times. It has a long history and the production method is very simple. Sprinkle salt on the leaves, compact them with stones, ferment for a month, and you can eat them. Salty, crisp and delicious. My family pickled a large jar of sauerkraut every year.

4. Prepare a container, jar, glass jar or vat, but it must be intact and cannot leak. First, dry the bottom of the vat with a towel. This process must be oil-free, and the oil will fail. Put the rubbed mustard one by one in order, and then pour in rice washing water, which must not be mustard.

5. find a heavy object to squeeze vegetables, preferably a stone. If you don't press it, it will float and wash it. Families who often pickle sauerkraut basically have a big stone, which is standard. Then seal the jar mouth with edible plastic wrap, put it in a cool and ventilated place, and wait for 20-30 days to eat.

6. Time is up. Let's open it. Mustard has deepened in color and tastes familiar and sour.
