Peel off any tough or damaged outer leaves. Finely shred the cabbage.
Add coarsely grated carrots
In a large bowl, combine the cabbage and carrots with salt, mixing it with your hands until it releases its liquid. It is recommended to use a juicy variety of cabbage.
Add cranberries and mix.
Tightly pack the cabbage mixture into a clean glass jar, leaving headspace. Add any liquid produced by the cabbage mixing into the jar, making sure the cabbage is below the liquid.
Cover the jar with a lid and leave at room temperature for 3 days. Several times a day, gently push the cabbage down with a long knife to release trapped bubbles.
Place the jar in the refrigerator.
Your fresh sauerkraut can be served garnished with finely chopped red onion, sunflower oil, and a drizzle of honey.
