White cabbage can not only be preserved in the form of sauerkraut. Cooked white cabbage is the basis for many delicious recipes, but can also be processed into salads. Canning is also done relatively quickly and easily.

A white cabbage stew can be boiled down wonderfully

Utensils needed

In addition to the oven with drip tray or a preserving machine, you need suitable glasses:

  • Classic jars with a glass lid, rubber ring and metal clip.
  • Jars with twist-off lids. If you want to reuse used glasses, make sure that the seal is intact.

You can also use jars with lids, rubber rings and metal brackets. However, these have the disadvantage that the vacuum cannot be checked reliably.
