00:00 Intro
01:49 Preparing the cabbage
03:35 Seasoning the cabbage
04:41 Massaging the cabbage
06:25 Packing the jars
08:44 Detailing daily instructions
10:25 Tasting the sauerkraut
INGREDIENTS
- 2 lbs organic cabbage shredded
- 1 tbsp kosher salt
INSTRUCTIONS
- Clean the cabbage. Remove any large outer leaves with thick ribs and set them aside. Use a kraut cutter, mandolin, or sharp knife to slice the cabbage. The cabbage can be sliced up to 1/4-inch thick or smaller.
- In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage and kosher salt. Toss the two ingredients together and gently massage the salt into the cabbage. Allow the cabbage and salt to rest until juice begins to collect in the bottom of the bowl, about 4-6 minutes.
- Pack the cabbage into a quart jar, slightly pressing to cover it with its own liquid. Pour any remaining liquid in the bowl over the packed cabbage. The cabbage needs to stay below liquid at all times during fermentation. Cut a piece of the reserved cabbage outer leaf into a smaller size that fits into the quart jar. Press the outer leaf onto the shredded cabbage and use it as a weight to keep the cabbage below the liquid.
- Put a lid on the jar and place it in a spot out of direct sunlight. Once a day, remove the lid to allow the collected gas to escape. Begin to taste the sauerkraut after 2-3 days. Let the sauerkraut sit for up to 9 days until it achieves the desired sour flavor. Once finished, remove the top piece of cabbage and store the sauerkraut in the refrigerator to stop the fermentation process.

From my farm to your home. 🏡
My name is Kaleb Wyse and here, you will find delicious recipes, videos from my farm, garden, and fun home projects. My knowledge has been earned from years of home cooks and farmers in my family. wyseguide.com
A farm is much more than a house to live in; it’s a lifestyle. My passion for gardening and landscaping came from outdoor work with my mom in our expansive farm yard, my love for baking came from innumerable short walks to my grandma’s house to make cookies, and as a farmer, my dad taught me that we are the stewards of our land.
So whether you live in a city center or have decided rural life is for you, I hope to inspire you with the projects and recipes I use in daily life. We can’t all live on a farm, but we all need farms in our lives. From the dirt in my vegetable garden to the flour in my kitchen, I’ll show you everything I love to do.

Thank you for your simple recipe, but just wanted to know if I can wash the cabbage first
From South Africa 😊
I never print the recipe, I just screenshot it.
Oooouuu! Tvoje prsi
My husband comes from a european background, and when he was a kid, it was a tradition for his family to make a big batch of sauerkraut. To this day, we still have the cabbage shredder his grandparents used, and we will be passing it down to our children along with that tradition.
Awesome
Who knew sauerkraut was so easy to make?! I'm gonna give this recipe a whirl-thank you Kaleb:)
Finally a simple sauerkraut recipe that I'm confident of making. Seen too many recipes in the past, but I'm always afraid it will turn bad instead of ferment. Don't want to get killed from eating bad sauerkraut😅
But oh, what a way to go!
Snacznego ❤
Sometimes it can form a dusty yeast residue on the top but you can simply scoop it off it's not toxic
I still have my great grandmas wooden kraut board. So very special to have these pieces from our family.
If one is following any kind of Ayurveda habits this recipe is worth gold! Thank you for making this so accessible.
I bet that, that Kraut cutter would work on zucchini and carrots as well.
I prefer to cut with a knife and have some thicker crunchier mixed in.
I add shredded carrots and thin sliced onion and use 1/2 gallon jars using airlocks. A Russian lady gave me the recipe. We rode the train together and met there.
We have 4 yummy jars of saurkraut in the fridge. I love making it. Thanks
Seriously, that is the most beautiful head of cabbage I have ever seen!
Story time:
I am Romanian I an and my family has been making sauerkraut since the old country. Our Christmas dinner traditionally is stuffed cabbage. However, preparation of that meal starts in November when homemade sauerkraut and soured cabbage leaves are "put up" in crocks. Dill and savory is added in little cheesecloth pkgs. for flavor. By Christmas the cabbage leaves and sauerkraut is sour enough for us to use. The cabbage rolls are placed in the pot with the sauerkraut on top. This is cooked Christmas Eve for the next day. To my family, it is not Christmas eve until the aroma of stuffed cabbage fills the house! I've had this every year since I was a child. My mother taught me how to make it and I make it now since my parents have been gone. I think of them and my grandparents and ask them to guide my hands when I prepare this dish. I know they are with us when we have our Christmas dinner and I am so honored to carry on the tradition...
That sounds very good! My Mom made cabbage rolls with meat inside. I had forgot about them until you mentioned your tradition. Better than any processed frozen meals from the store!
Absolutely!
Sourkraut is a natural probiotic. It disturbs me how many things are on the market for probiotics. I Agree that we should get back to natural food!
It's very important too to get your salt to cabbage ratio correct. Too much salt and it won't ferment, not enough salt and it may spoil. Also, many people let it ferment for weeks so nine days is not a ceiling. I have found that 13 days is perfect for my taste. Thanks for the video.
Easy and straightforward. Great video. Thanks
I love sauerkraut! Never knew it was so easy!! I will try this! Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for sharing this and explaining so much. I appreciate learning to love sauerkraut!
Awesome video, totally new way of making cabbage and looks easy, thx for sharing🎉
You are seriously delightful! Thanks for your talent, heart and these great recipes!
I grew cabbage a few years ago, each one weighed over 20 pounds. Very dense and delicious.
Just wanna say that you are such a happy positive lovely vibe....love you!! PJ from Texas:)
Very approachable method - thank you!
Love this video! Grew up having sauerkraut, but never made it. Wonder if my great grandmother did, but do not know(both great grandparents were German, grateful for many German recipes we did have growing up). Just found homemade sauerkraut at a store that was homemade with caraway seeds, it was awesome. ❤
Thank you for making this so easy. I love your channel. Thank you so much 👍
Great recipe, doing this tomorrow …thank you 👏👏👏
Great video - I had no idea how easy this could be. Love your channel
This was a great demonstration, thanks!
Another great video, Thanks!!
Wyse this video was so helpful, just what I needed to make my own thank you!
Great simple explanation !!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Your cabbage looks amazing!!!
Thank you for this!
Love this video. Very well done.
Thank you for sharing this, I never knew it was that easy to make sauerkraut.
I love, love your videos!
I LOVE kraut! Germanic heritage. I LOVE KRAUT. Do you honestly think that quart will last over the winter? Besides, fermented veggies are absolutely GREAT for the microbiome for the gut. Kraut is one of my favorite foods. My history is Bavarian.
Don't eat out of the jar? Are you kidding? However, each time I do eat out of the jar, I use a clean spoon. "don't eat out of the jar" pthffff ( I don't know how to make the raspberry sound in words).
This is really great. Thanks Kaled.
You have the MOST interesting shows. Thanks for a great one...who knew it was so easy.
I love to cut my cherry tomatoes from my garden in half and top them with some homemade sour kraut. The sweet juicy tomatoes with the salty crunchy kraut is a match made in heaven.
Kaleb thanks so much for sharing a big part of yourself with us! I have tried so many of your recipes and instructions and they are great ❤
Thanks for making it easy and simple
Thank you for sharing,GOD Bless You
Lovely. I love sauerkraut and this is so easy. Thanks!
I love all your recipes. Made your zucchini fritters this evening, along with catfish we caught in the Mississippi. The fritters were excellent.
Love this. Thank you so much.
I used to make this when my kids were young and I used this exact method! I’m so excited to make some now.
Wow thank you for this !
You are my go-to when I am need of a great recipe. Thank you Kaleb
Thank you so much for making it this easy!!!
Thanks 🙏 easily followed and simple. I have started my first batch 😊
Thanks for sharing your recipe. I’m game to try this.
Best sauerkraut how to I've seen on RUclips! Does this process apply to fermenting other veggies as well?
Well done. Thanks so very much for sharing 😊
brilliant!! thank you. i learned....
This is awesome!! Thank you so much!!
Would love to try this. I love sauerkraut
Great process.
Thank you for posting this video. Clear, concise description of how to make sauerkraut. By the way, your kitchen is perfect.
I just made a jar, I can’t wait to see how it turned out, thank you very much ❤️🇨🇦
This is awesome!! I am the only person in the family that eats sauerkraut. This will be great for just me!
Thanks Kaleb!
Good morning 👋. I love cabbage. Thank you for sharing this recipe. 👍😋👍❤️😎. That was easy. Thanks again.
Thanks, going to try.
I was just enjoying a hot dog with Sauerkraut while seeing the notification for your video 😊 Unfortunately it was the jarred kind and not homemade, but the next batch may be just that, thanks to your easy to follow instructions and even better, for a small batch. Tip for the Lid. I bought the Ball Fermentation Kit, that comes with Lids that allow Ferments to "breath," while keeping bugs etc. out. Been using these for my Milk Kefir and Sourdough Starter for years and love them.
I just made Two Quarts just like this and it actually turned out soooo…. Good!! Still can’t believe It turned out👍🏻
Wana make some too. Love it!
Wow!! That was so easy..i thought it is so complicated to make it..surely, i gonna try this..thank you for sharing❤
OMG I'll be doing this this weekend! It will be great with my pork butt that I'm slow cooking. Thanks for sharing!
I love your channel been subscribed for years. This is Rhonda in ga.
I love this video! Definitely not gross in my opinion 😅 I'm going to try it this fall 👍 Thanks for your very clear directions and keeping it simple.
I thought it would be a hard process! I'm going to make this!
Thank you so much...other channels take too long and make it over complicated!
Love all your videos. You do things almost exactly like my mom and grandma did.
Thanks for sharing.
Going to do this later this evening.. I've waited to long and now I've been inspired to do this immediately!! 🤣
I can’t wait to make kraut !!! Yummy
Awesome video, thanks l just got into delicious sauerkraut yummy 😋
Half a year ago I made my first sauerkraut from white and red cabbage, since then I am absolutely obssessed with them
That’s fabulous
Thank you for a wonderful, easy recipe. I have been working on decreasing added ingredients. It gets no more simple than this video. Well done!
Also, I tried the peach butter recipe (without sugar) and it worked wonderfully. Thanks for that video also😊
Thank you Kaleb this video was exactly ar the right time. My son needs to start eating more sauerkraut. And you answered the one question I had. I was wondering if I could add carrots. You made my day.
Nice sharing 🎉
Thanks Kaleb! I think I will try again. My first attempt last year didn’t work (I think I used too much salt). But try and try again as they say. Will be definitely giving your recipe a try. Maybe I’ll have better luck this time.
I was trying to eat this for months, but I was lazy to go to much process making it. And boom found you with this easy recipe. I have to tell, meanwhile you were talking I was preparing it. I DID IT! Thanks Wise young Wyse❤ Note: I’ll tell you in 7 days how it goes.
I can't believe how easy it is. I'm starting now for Labor Day W/E. Love your videos : )
How did it turn out?
Thank you so much, my grandparents use to make This and I Loved it. Do you have a pickled green bean recipe by any chance… Thanks again!!
I made a quart and a pint the other day and I used salt water in a zip lock baggie to bridge the gap and hold down the sauerkraut and it’s working ! Thanks a lot.
Kaleb, I knew you would get the Sauerkraut right! You are a GREAT Cook! I have made Sauerkraut and it is always too salty, and figuring out the "percentages" seems too complicated to me. But, I decided to try it your way and made 3 different quarts: One with Carrots and Caraway Seeds, One plain, and one with purple & green cabbage and carrots. I just sampled them after 3 days and they ARE SUPER DELICIOUS ALREADY!!!! I can't wait to eat these now! Thank you for a recipe that is easy to follow. P.S. - I like your 2 different voices when you are talking...it's cute!
Very interesting!
I made your recipe for kraut today.❤ I couldn’t find organic cabbage, but hopefully it will still turn out.
You're the first 🥇 video I watch ❤
I love your enthusiasm for creating life giving food! Healthy, delicious, simple living and eating well! Jesus loves you! Thank you
Can’t Wait To Make 🍽🥑
Loved your recipes. Quick and easy to follow. You can add a bit of garlic, ginger, or turmeric for more gut friendly . 😁😁🥰🥰.
Never knew this was so easy 😮
I LOVE THIS!!! Thank you! Now….. could you give us a few recipes you like using it in? I use sauerkraut in my homemade Reuben sandwiches which my kids absolutely love, and I make sauerkraut and pork roast with potatoes. But I’ve only used can. Who knew I could be making it from scratch.
Right, ideas on a variety of ways to consume the saurkraut will be helpful
Lovely video.
My sister grew her own cabbage and made it out of her purse cabbages. It was so good.
Yes I'd like this
Yum!
Made some purple kraut, turned out great and it’s so pretty. I wish I knew how to add a picture.
Love kraut
Thank you
