Homemade Sauerkraut (fermented)


Jump to recipe

If you would have asked me a few months ago if I liked sauerkraut I would have made a “that’s gross” face and said no. I honestly don’t remember the last time I had sauerkraut, but it just seems like something I wouldn’t like. Since I’m trying to incorporate more fermented foods in my diet I decided I’d give it a try..and I’m glad I did! This sauerkraut recipe is fermented and therefore filled with beneficial bacteria to help maintain or improve the balance of bacteria in your gut. A healthy gut digests and absorbs nutrients better, allows for regular bowel movements, improved immunity, and can even play a role in the control of some hormones.

SO, before you write this recipe off, take 10 minutes to try a small amount. It really is quite tasty (and that’s coming from several people who don’t normally eat fermented foods).
