Frequently asked questions
-
That’s totally up to you! Start with a moderate amount of Korean red pepper flakes (gochugaru) and adjust to your heat tolerance. Remember, you can always add more spice later, but you can’t take it out once it’s in.
-
Fermentation time can vary based on your taste preferences and the temperature in your kitchen. Generally, it takes anywhere from 1 to 5 days. Taste it every day to find that sweet spot where it’s just the right amount of tangy for you!
-
Sauerkraut is ready when it’s tangy, crunchy, and delicious! This usually takes about 1 to 4 weeks, depending on your taste and the temperature. A good rule of thumb is to start tasting after a week and keep going until you find your perfect level of sourness.
-
Once your sauerkraut reaches its peak flavor, transfer it to the fridge in an airtight container. This slows down the fermentation process and keeps it fresh for several months. Just be prepared for it to become your go-to condiment!
