K&K Keramik Beech Wood Cabbage Stomper

Imported From Germany

This stomper or smasher is in the traditional style.  The Cabbage Smasher extracts the natural juices from cabbage.  You can use a mallet or your hand, but the smasher is easier and safer.  For sauerkraut place about  1.5" - 2.0" of shredded cabbage into fermenting crock, sprinkle with some sea salt and then start pounding on it with your smasher.  Not too hard, just enough to smash the leaves.  This will create natural juices that form the brine to ferment your shredded vegetables.  Place another layer of cabbage on top of the other and repeat the process.
