Ingredients
- 1 green cabbage, about 1.2 kg (2 2/3 lb), finely sliced with a knife or mandolin
- 5 cups water
- 1 cup white wine vinegar
- 1/2 cup maple syrup (preferably dark syrup for its robust flavour)
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp hot pepper flakes (or more, depending on desired level of heat)
Method
- Put the cabbage, water, vinegar, maple syrup, garlic, salt, and hot pepper into a large pot. Cover and simmer over medium heat for 30 minutes or until the cabbage is al dente. Stir a few times while cooking.
- Meanwhile, perform the steps in the “Method for Preparing Jars and Lids,” found here.
- Remove the cabbage with a slotted spoon or silicone tongs, and distribute among the still-hot, sterilized jars to 2 cm (7/8 in) of their tops, then pour in the liquid to 1 cm (3/8 in) of the tops*.
- Use a non-metallic utensil to release air bubbles.
- Follow Steps 1 – 6 of the “Canning Method,” found here.
