With Jack Frost making him
self so conspicuous Monday morn
ing, we are possibly all hurrying
to get produce gathered before it
gets nipped. How to use “extra"
cabbage may be a problem- Here
is an easy, and good way to pre
pare sauerkraut in jars: Shred
cabbage, pack firmly but do not
pound in an extremely tight pack
in hot jars. Add one teaspoon sug
ar and one tablespoon salt to each
quart of cabbage. Fill with boiling
water and seal. Store in a cool,
dry place. If you want kraut real
sour, don't tighten cover, and keep
in a warm place until the cab
bage “works”; then tighten cover
and store.
The Extension Service has a
ine “Pickle, Relish, and Kraut"
bulletin for your help in pickling
carrots, cauliflower, and celery.
Celery relish is extra good.
