I now have a lot of cabbage that urgently needs to be processed, so I’m looking for interesting recipes on the site. I found a recipe for sauerkraut with cranberries. This is definitely unusual for us). The process has been familiar to me since childhood. I remember my parents grinding cabbage and carrots with salt in huge basins. I asked my son for help. First, he ground the cabbage with salt, and then added carrots and cranberries. I put all this mass in three half-liter jars and added cranberries on top. The jars stood on the table for a day, the brine did not appear, apparently the cabbage was of the wrong variety. So I boiled some brine with a spoonful of sugar and poured it into jars. After two days, the cabbage became sour, but the brine did not become cloudy. Apparently the cranberry worked). The cabbage remained in the refrigerator for two more days. Both my husband and I liked the result. Dressed the salad with vegetable oil and served with meat cutlets. The cabbage turned out to be sauerkraut, with a characteristic sour taste. Bitter and sour cranberries go well with cabbage, a pleasant aftertaste.

Yummy!!! I love cabbage in any form, and even more so when it’s healthy! It’s not difficult to prepare and is quite quick, although the cooking time depends on how much cabbage you are going to ferment. The hardest thing is to wait the required 3 days!

A very interesting and unusual recipe for making sauerkraut! I always cooked cabbage according to my grandmother's old recipe - cabbage, carrots, salt and spices. And then we add such a wonderful berry as cranberry, which contains a huge amount of vitamins and microelements. I usually make jelly from cranberries; a lot of the beneficial properties are lost during cooking. And when fermented, all this will remain in the berry. Thank you very much for the recipe and for the wonderful photographs, the dish turns out amazing. Recipe for a cookbook.
