Grandmas Canned Sauerkraut

[@deloriscapps1987]

Thank you, you have helped me can tomatoes, onions, potatoes, sweet pot, carrots, and now sauerkraut! I love you are lovers of our LORD and Saviour, Christ Jesus. May God Bless you with good health, and continue to strengthen your bodies as you continue to minister for Him. Blessings

Grew up with sauerkraut and now at 65, learning to can. Been scared, but tried anyhow. Pressure canned potatoes, waterbath canned cranberry sauce, pressure canned pumpkin, and now going to make your grandma’s sauerkraut recipe. Thank you ma’am.

We are all scared because we have been gaslighted.They still don't have pressure canners in many parts of Europe yet they can everything.

[@payne7028]

@@roadstraveledphotography8440 Hi 😊 Im no expert but after seeing your comment here I was wondering if you resolved the problem you had with getting a good seal on those lids? If not, I’m wondering if you used brand new lids, not rings? Another tip, if you turn the jars on over onto their “heads’ on a towel on the counter over night to cool down, that can also help to get a good seal. ☺️ Don’t give up! Michella Payne

I want to thank you for canning 101. This is the first year I have been able to grow heads of cabbage. My husband David built a raised bed with a hoop so our cabbage didn't get ate up. We like kraut and today we had heads of cabbage to harvest. I harvested the cabbage and went about canning it with David according to your instructions. We have our first 5 quarts of kraut thanks to you. Thank you so much. We are trying to can everything we can this year and you are our preferred person to watch for canning.

It's good stuff for sure...BUT, very easy to overdo it with a huge helping of fermented anything, especially if one's body is not used to eating fermented foods. It's so good for your gut bacteria but you could get an upset or gassy tummy if you eat too much at one time. Hopefully, you did not. : )

[@rhondaoneal]

Was yours sour like sour kraut is? I have done this recipe times and to me it tastes like plain canned cabbage. I didn't mind because I use more cabbage to cook with than I do sour kraut. But when it is boiled in water bath it does not allow things to ferment.

[@tennesassy2]

@@rhondaoneal I like this one as it is not so sour. Just my preference. I do also make the fermented sauerkraut as well and you can also make that as sour as you want by the length of time you ferment it.

You can also, if you want, pull the whole cabbage up by the roots, place 2-3 of them in a bucket, fill with dirt. Place in dark, cool basement. Water just a little once a week. When I do this they last till March/April or so. Or, if you cut the cabbage off leaving the root in the ground you will get several new heads about the size of a softball. Cabbage is great!

[@neitajames6029]

Ms Lori, my twin sister Vee been saying.nothing but good things about you and Mr Brown. Finally your channel popped up on my you tube. I subscribed after the first video. I'm a mom of 14, and a Medical Dr. We have 2 sets of twins, and 2 sets of triplets. Our children range from age 20 to 5. We was Blessed that before Ace and I married his father, Grandfathers and uncles all got together and bought us land. We loved The mountains, Loved Tennessee. Decided to live there. We bought a lot of land. Now I'm glad we did. We build our own home. It took 2 years to clear the land. My husband designed our home. He spent 6 years in the military, I graduated at 16, got married at 17. I managed to finish Medical School, have my own practice before our first child was born. His family helped with the first 2. We were between Tennesee and Georgia. I had 2 greenhouses. It was not till 2013 after the first set of triplets and twins was born that I decided I wanted to raise all of our children together, I sold my practice, figured I could work in a hospital or work for a Dav hospital. Things don't always go as one plan. We had a home, plenty of land. I decided to just grow the majority of our food. It wasn't till 4 years ago we started raising more poultry. Clearing more land for fruit trees, doing a bigger garden. We have cows,hogs,chickens, this year with help I planted the largest garden ever, since Ace is now A Federal Agent that mostly work cold cases. Since the pandemic he works mostly from home. I grew a lot cabbages this year. Since I love sauerkraut. I been wanting to can as much as I can. Been watching other channels. Figured it's got to be a easier way to do this. I love canning beans, I've seen how you did Dry beans. Thought Bless you Ms Lori, you were indeed a answer to my prayer. Now watching you do sauerkraut this way. I know you are a Earth Angel. Thank you. If i ever meet you, i want to give you a great big hug.🤗. Our youngest will be 6 this year. We have been homeschooling since the pandemic. We are Blessed. My mother in law live with us she's in her 80s. But she give good advice. Poppop is 94, her brother, live on our property too and his wife. They are both active, love Gardening. So I've had some help.but I still manage to cook, homeschooled meals everyday. I love canning, and preserving. I love your channel. I've learned so much. Mama Rosa and Mawmaw Barbara. Don't cook much. I managed somehow. I'm all for quick easy meals. Thank God my children are not fussy. They eat what I cook no fuss. It's how I grew up, whatever my mom cooked, put on our plates, we ate.having 1 20 year old 1 soon to be 19 year old. They don't complain. Our oldest got married a year ago, aj and his wife are having twins in October, they have a house on our property as well. Bj and his girlfriend is getting married, in september, I'm suppose to cook a lot of the food. Thank God, we have Beef, pork and Chicken that we raised.that will help a lot. It will be another 15 years before we might be empty nesters. Thank God they are all Healthy. GOD MERCY, has kept us healthy and strong. Since I grew up on a farm and Both Ace and my Grandparents and GreatGrandparents. Raised a lot what they ate, both meat and veggies. I'm really new at canning, pressure cook in ng. My Grandmother used water bath can a lot. I'm learning, watching as many of your videos as I can in one day Again thank you. My Great Grandmother had 15 children. I guess I'm the only one who has as many children as she did. I've talked to much. God Bless you Ms Lori, Mr Brown. I love your channel. We are Country people, Who Love God, Thankful. Love,respect and positivity always. Neita ,Ace and Family. ✌🕯❤🙏🤗🦋🌻🌷🙂👋👣.

Hello! I’ve enjoyed your videos so much! Thank you for this one especially. I’m a revived canner from the 80s. When my son discovered that I was canning again he asked for sauerkraut. I researched all sorts of methods and decided on this one because it takes care of itself! I can’t wait to give it to him next month. He lives several hours away but, by the time he receives it, I’m expecting it to be very tasty. I appreciate your thorough, kind way of teaching us new or revived canners. 😊

[@tommiethompson2581]

Thank you, Lori. I have been wracking my brain trying to remember how my great Granny canned sauerkraut. I am 60 now and I was maybe 8 or 9 the last time I watched her make it. I would go back and stay with her before school started in the fall. She would have pork neckbones with kraut, big butter beans, fried taters and cornbread. Oh, and a little saucer of sliced onion. It was awesome! Unfortunately, all have passed and I've had no one to ask how she did it. My feeble attempts were just that, feeble. Your video brought it back to me. That's how Granny did it. Again, thank you so much.

Yummy...one of my big take-aways from a year in NY state (Eastern Long Island) away from my beloved South was introduction to an authentic Rueben! As soon as this is fermented I'll be at the deli for my corned beef!

[@joeecarbonee6849]

Oh hell yeah. You got me starving for some now 😂

[@stretch4960]

I make homemade pumpernickel, thousand islands and kraut. Then I go to Amish country and get baby Swiss and corned beef. Well ya all sure know what I do from there. Yes. Mmmmmm! Lotta work but so so worth it.

[@naffoto425]

Thank you for simplifying this recipe! It was so easy, now I have to wait to taste it 🙂

[@judypierce7028]

I have been looking for a great how to can sauerkraut. I have found it! Since I started canning this summer, I have followed so many of your videos and recipes especially the blueberry preserves. Thank you so much for everything that you have shared. You remind me so much of my grandmother.

[@mssandybeach1]

Oh my gosh how I would love to have a big heaping mess of this kraut, pinto beans and corn bread... Thank you!!!!!

[@huneebunee]

Right

[@karolenethompson2594]

You remind me so much of my late best friend and myself when we would can. We always had so much fun. We were close to the same age. We even worked a job together. I miss her so much. I am 73 now and she has been gone 7 years now. We both loved to cook also.

[@paularizzo5217]

Perfect timing!! A nearby farm has cabbage for $1/head. I was trying to figure out if it was worth the trip for a couple heads of cabbage...now, though! Oh yeah!! I love anything cabbage!!!

[@cyndidouglas919]

Started preserving food today for the first time in my life. I really appreciate your attention to detail, your simplification, and I love your stories!! ❤️ thanks for sharing this! I was blessed!

Thank you Miss Lori. My grandma died in 86 and most of that side of family within last 3 years. The ones left cant remember her sauerkraut recipe. Thank you so much. I love your channel you are so lovely and caring it warms my heart.💙🙏 God Bless you.

This was an easy method! My grandmother made it in a crock.but although I watched her do everything else, I couldn't remember how she did that!! I'm going to try it!!! Thanks.

Great minds think alike! I was canning (and filming a.video) last night too. Mine was Rotel style tomatoes, using up most of those tomatoes that I froze last year while I was working on the goat pen 🤗. I have never canned sauerkraut before, only fermented it, I think I will give this a try. Love ya! xoxoxo

[@WhippoorwillHoller]

Thanks sweet sister, it's just like grandma done it, for long term storage, the longer it would sit the better! Xoxoxo

[@dianabrown3478]

please can someone tell me if i need to wash cabbage after been cut??

[@45valk]

I’ve been water bath canning my peppers for a couple of weeks. I’m having a good harvest so far. I only have 12 pints so far but will probably get 24 more pints. Then fermenting Tabasco peppers soon to make sauce.

[@OceanFrontVilla3]

As an Austrian who's parents made sauerkraut by hand in a barrel I can tell you there's NEVER any vinegar added. Raw, fermented cabbage is the best there is. I make it in a large crock.

[@WhippoorwillHoller]

We do too here, But, this was a way grandma put up kraut for long term storage, but we fermented too, the vinegar is for acidity for safety because of canning it

[@umpman04]

Do you think your comment helps ANYBODY here ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

[@wine-not-whine8391]

My dad never put vinegar in his kraut either, not sure that he even put sugar in it. He would keep a jar in refrigerator all the time and if he had an upset stomach he would eat a spoonful or two of that kraut. Said it helped settle his stomach.

[@shanawilliams4526]

​@@umpman04 Watching the video, I was thinking the same thing. WhippoorwillHoller clarified things which probably helped a lot of new canners. It was not a dumb comment to make by snowbird6855. Maybe a little blunt but not rude. Adding vinegar is a frequent question. Respect and politeness go a long way!

[@JeraldandCathyPeterson]

How long does this have to set in the pantry before its sauerkraut?

[@winkfinkerstien1957]

Thank you so much... I just made my first batch from your recipe and I am grateful for the time and trouble you took to teach me how it's done. I trust you and your Grandmas recipe and am very thankful for your help. 😎👍

Love Miss Lori!! Wish I was your neighbor!! I’ve learned so much from your videos and love to can!!

Thanks so much

[@annamulett3376]

@@WhippoorwillHoller If I make pints instead of quarts would I use half tsp ? Sorry I saw your recipe and it said quarts and pints 1tsp just wanting to be sure it’s not over salted thank you and God bless you

Yes I see pretty!! Yes I like this I have canned for years but I have never done cabbage, thanks!!

[@AudreyCrick-ih8db]

Lover the video. I am all for easy. This recipe is just what I was wanting. Thank you so much.

[@MoneypitHomestead]

I MADE THIS! On September 22, and we open a jar and oh boy I love this. I’m not crazy about store bought sauerkraut, but this was mild and still so crisp. I love the way you cook. I also made those crock apples slices on the 30th but haven’t ate any yet but they look so pretty in my jars. AND lol in my canner right now I’m making your caramelised onions. What’s next ... I really enjoy every video that I have watched so far, I wish we were neighbors I think we could be best friends :) Lisa from moneypit homestead

I love your videos. I am a fellow Arkansan. My family didn't make this. I have made fermented kraut. I just made your recipe and can't wait to try it. Thanks for the recipe.

[@WhippoorwillHoller]

Grandma didn't open her kraut till winter I ferment alot of kraut too in my crock then just put in the fridge or can it

[@terryrusselleverydayguy1613]

I did this process and it turned out wonderful and delicous. I tried something on a couple of jars, put fresh dill and garlic in them and it took the saurkraut to another level it was so delicous we will do this more.

[@terryriley7490]

If you don't mind me asking, how much dill and garlic did you add?

[@nyokamullins4000]

I love this recipe and that’s exactly the way I make it, tks I will make it come fall

[@vickithilges3497]

So you do your sauerkraut this way too? I’ve never done it this way. So you only use a very small amount of vinegar in each jar? I will try sauerkraut this way too

[@bettyebutler5599]

Mine turned out mushy and with very little taste. What could I have done wrong?

[@florencecimera5733]

Easiest canning process ever! I just did this with red cabbage. Can't wait to see it come out of the canner. It was beautiful going in!

[@Myfavorites877]

My grandmother had a room off the kitchen also that was built around the well. I used to love drawing up the water as a child. Thank you for this great video!!! ❤️🙏🏻
