    Sauerkraut Made in my Purse

    Nobody knows it but I make sauerkraut in my purse!

    Well not really, but doesn't it sound GROSS?

    I do mix a cabbage salad for my lunch, though.

    In a quart ziploc, I mix:

    3 - 4 c cabbage (just cram the bag full) and add:
    1 TBS olive or sesame oil
    1 TBS rice vinegar
    1TBS soy sauce (or less to taste but it really wilts the cabbage)
    optional squirt of hot sauce of choice.

    Zip it shut and stick it inside another bag (my lunch bag) in my purse.

    By lunchtime it is well-mixed, and quite tasty.

    You could also make Curtida, using salt instead of soy sauce (no idea how much ... ) and oregano!
  • It's also nice to make the old fashioned way:

  • I absolutely adore sauer kraut, especially in my ramen. It feels like such a cleansing food and it has such a low calorie count.
  • We alaskans grow huge cabbages so sauerkraut is a staple. I love Carol Sues idea. Sounds tasty.
