Steps:
- Remove any roots or ugly spots from your rutabaga/swede; scrub well.
- Grate rutabaga and thoroughly washed ginger; mix well.
- Pack the vegetable mixture into a 1 quart jar as you would sauerkraut, very tightly.
- Very slowly pour your brine over your rutabaga.
- Let the liquid seep in, then crush your rutabaga mixture back in tightly. Continue this process until you have a centimeter of brine on top of your rutabaga.
- Weigh the vegetables down with a weight of some sort (a baggie or smaller jar filled with water) and let ferment at room temperature, removing any bloom/scum as it forms.
- Your vegetables should be complete in about five days.
- Refrigerate.
