Preserving whole cabbage heads. That good old pickled sour cabbage. A traditional recipe.
A traditional pickling recipe for whole cabbage heads, for that crunchy sour cabbage, incredibly delicious and punchy. This pickled cabbage recipe is easy to make, so follow along. ???? More info below ????
You can't get it wrong if you follow my steps, as this old fashioned way of preserving cabbage has been in my family for generations. Making a video about it is my way of honouring and preserving my family's cooking secrets.
This way of canning the whole cabbage (varza murata in Romanian) is especially appropriate if you're planning to cook the Stuffed Cabbage Rolls at some point. And I have a wonderful recipe for the so-called Romanian stuffed sour cabbage rolls known as sarmale. Here it is
Here's what you need to make your own pickled cabbage
⭐️ VEGGIES AND FRUITS:
* 3 medium-sized cabbages;
If you’re planning to go for the stuffed cabbage rolls at some point, choose the variety of cabbage that has greener and thinner leaves, as well as smaller stalks. For this particular dish, you need to pickle the whole cabbage to have the leaves available for wrapping.
The variety that has whiter, thicker leaves, as well as larger stalks, is okay for salads or cooked meals, where you’re just using chopped pieces of cabbage.
* 1-2 horseradish roots – peeled and chopped as you wish;
* 4-5 fresh celery leaves;
* optional: 1 quince fruit (gives a nice colour and flavour);
* optional: 1 red cabbage (adds a purple tint).
⭐️ SPICES:
* peppercorn – 1-2 Tbsp;
* 1-2 dry bay leaves;
* dry dill flowers and stems;
If you can’t find these, you can use dry dill seeds. Alternatively, if none of that is available for you, just use fresh dill. Dill is exactly what gives the sour cabbage that distinctive and addictive flavour.
⭐️ BRINE – quantities for 1l of brine (1 qt):
* These are the quantities for 1 litre of brine. You should multiply them to get as many litres as your container calls for. I used about 8 litres for mine.
* Mix 50 g (1.8 oz or 3 Tbsp) coarse salt without iodine for each litre of water and stir to until it has dissolved.
⭐️ OTHER:
* A container with a larger opening, where everything will fit nicely. Or you can go for smaller jars if you only go for the chopped cabbage Sauerkraut style.
* Our family tradition calls for a clean tube (any kind you can find) to help the fermentation process during the first 9 days.
PICKLING PROCESS:
You start with adding the spices, as well as the horseradish root and some of the celery stems. If you are going for the cabbage rolls, you want to place the whole cabbages.
If you don’t care about wrapping it later, you can cut the cabbage into quarters, this way you can squeeze in more of it in your container. There are no rules here, just place them as you wish, leaving as few empty spaces as possible. Place all the ingredients in no particular order.
At some point, you want to place a clean tube inside. It’s supposed to be just as long as to get to the bottom of your container.
Pour the brine to cover all ingredients. The tube can live inside the brine.
Shake your jug to get some of the air bubbles out. Close the lid, but not quite tightly.
After the first 3 days, open the lid, take a deep breath and blow some air inside a few times. You must do this process 3 times at a 3 days interval. This is for 2 reasons: to make sure the salt is evenly distributed in all the brine and also to get the remaining air hidden in the cabbage out.
After you’ve finished with the tube after 9 days, you can remove it from the jug and tighten up the lid.
Store it in the coolest, darkest place you have around. It should be ready anywhere between 1 month and a half and 2 months depending on the temperature it's stored at.
I hope you’ll give it try guys! The most difficult part of this canning process is to go out and buy everything. Cheers!

How to Make Sour Cabbage Heads for Cabbage Rolls | Gingerbread Cottage
Vanessa talks you through how to make whole sour cabbage heads for cabbage rolls. First you hollow the core out, fill the cavity with a very good sea salt, and fill the crock with salt water. Vanessa also put some red pieces of cabbage into the salt water to give the juice a wonderful pink coloring. Drinking the sauerkraut juice provides lactic acid, which helps with digestion. Generally, people make whole heads of sour cabbage as part of the prep for cabbage rolls.
