Recipe's preparation

    Sauerkraut
  1. I like to chop the cabbage in 2 halves to start with, so put half the cabage & half the salt into the TM bowl & chop for about 5 - 10 secs speed 4 depending on how chopped you want your cabage -you may need to use the spatula to stir it. Place chopped cabage to one side into a container & reapeat with the other half of the cabage.


    Add the first batch of the cabage to the TM bowl & stir for 8 mins counter-clockwise operation speed 2. This will bring out heaps of mositure from the cabage. Add the peppercorns & bay leaves & squash mixture into a sterilised jar, it should have the cabage liquid covering the cabage completely. Place the lid on & store in a dark place for 1 week then refrigerate & it's ready to eat.

    Thanks for this! looks much easier to make in the thermo than in a bowl and using hands! BUT, I saw on an American video where it said the temperature should be about 20-22 degrees (celsius) for approx 1 week fermenting (prior to refrigerating). So here in Qld it's 30 degrees! Wait till cooler months or go ahead and expect less time to desired fermentation? Would this risk mould or contaminagtion? Ta

    Takes the hard work out of the chopping and kneeding the cabbage. Would only chop and then kneed 1/2 of the amount shown but other than that works well.

    Super easy, love that the TMX takes over the hard work of 'kneading' it.

    will try to add some chilli next time

    I made this recently, I only had about 400g of cabbage so I adjusted the quantities to suit, it is fantastic!! Will be making another batch today. Thanks for sharing

    1000g was too much for my machine to handle, after I had chopped it in 2x500g lots.   It coped better with around 700g of cabbage in the stirring stage.   Resulted in a good kraut, which is the main thing but next time I will use less cabbage than the recipe says.  The TM was useful in saving time preparing the cabbage and producing liquid by hand.
