Notes:
- While preparing your cabbage, if the liquid is not enough to cover it completely, then make up a brine by adding 1 cup of water to 1.5 teaspoons of sea salt and add some to the jar until all the cabbage stays below the liquid.
- Discard any cabbage that may have accidentally floated to the top and formed a little mould. Don’t panic, it happens and that doesn’t mean you need to discard the whole lot, so long as the rest of the cabbage below the liquid looks healthy.
