Hi Maggie,

Yes, you will need to burp it. If you used a jar with an airlock, you would not need to burp it. But, because Fido jars do not have an airlock, you’ll need to burp it daily.

I just made this and used a Fido jar with a glass weight. I am wondering if I need to burp it daily? I am guessing not, since you didn’t mention it.

I added garlic and dill to mine, because I like the one from Wild Brine.

Straight out of the old country! Delicious. Mine never yielded much liquid, but it still seemed to work. I used it with Ukrainian pork, sauerkraut and dried fruit stew.

I have made this recipe several times. It is wonderful This sauerkraut doesn't even compare to the store bought stuff. I'll never buy sauerkraut again!
I followed the recipe however I added a little 2% brine just to be certain that it was completely covered. 1 TBL salt to 2 cups of water is what I made. I added just enough to top off the jars.
Please keep adding delicious fermented recipes.

This was awesome and super easy to follow. I added some garlic and dill to mine and it came out really good. I also used a mason jar and it seemed to work fine.

I know this recipe well, as I used to help my father make sauerkraut. Though his was made in several gallons in a stoneware crock and took weeks to ferment. It was not only sour but there's also a sweetness to it that can't be found in store bought sauerkraut.

It’s crunchy and delightfully sour, perfect for topping a round of beer-braised brats or layering into a big sandwich. I think I made too much. Oh well, I will share it.
