Kind of off-topic, but the first time I made sauerkraut at home I was amazed that there are just two ingredients: salt and cabbage. The brine comes from the water in the cabbage. All you need is those two ingredients, a clean container, some friendly lactobacilli (always around and ready to help), and some patience.
Caraway’s always good. I should start some now so that it’s really good around Thanksgiving (American Thanksgiving in November). We don’t eat much meat, but we like to make turkey Reuben sandwiches during the holidays.

I worked at a place where we mixed in a little bit of toasted caraway seeds to add a little extra flavor.
