How to pickle cabbage in a jar.

It will be better if you use juicy white cabbage to prepare this homemade preparation.

First, we need to remove the top green leaves from the head and rinse the head of cabbage under running water. Next, we cut the cabbage in half, and then, with a sharp knife, chop it into long narrow strips. The longer the strips you get, the more beautiful it will look in the plate when served.

We need to peel the garlic and cut it into thin slices.

Then, sprinkle the shredded cabbage with spices, chopped garlic and mix (but do not press as when fermenting) so that the spices and garlic are evenly distributed throughout the cabbage.It will be more convenient for you to mix cabbage with spices right on the surface of the kitchen table, as I did in the photo.

Next, we need to put the chopped workpiece into a container for marinating (any kind, as long as it does not oxidize).

Now, you can prepare the marinade for the cabbage.

For this we need:

• water – 1.3 liters;
• salt – 2 tbsp. false;
• sugar – 150 grams;
• vinegar (9%) – 100 ml.

We start preparing the marinade by adding sugar and salt to the water, stirring, putting it on the fire, and when it starts to boil, pour in the vinegar, bring to a boil and the marinade is ready.

Fill the container with our preparation with boiling marinade, so that the liquid completely covers the cabbage.

This cabbage should be marinated at room temperature for 24 hours, and then, to store the cabbage, put it in the refrigerator.

It is best to serve this crispy and aromatic pickled cabbage with spices by sprinkling with thinly sliced ​​onion half rings and sprinkling with sunflower oil.
