How to Make Sauerkraut at Home: A Probiotic-Rich Recipe

I would like to add some sugar and vinegar will this affect the priobiotics though ?

Hi, If you add sugar and vinegar at the start of fermentation, yes, it can have an impact. Adding sugar may speed up the initial fermentation process and increase the acidity of your sauerkraut more quickly. However, I recommend using vegetables with naturally higher sugar content, like carrots or beets, as they also provide additional nutritional benefits. As for vinegar, it raises the pH, which could inhibit the fermentation of certain non-digestible carbohydrates in the vegetables - something you might want to avoid. I hope this answers your question. Good luck with your sauerkraut.
