If you love homemade sauerkraut, but don't have your own crocks, this is a great recipe. It's fast and easy to put together and you can make any quantity you want. My father made sauerkraut every year with friends, since he doesn't have crocks, and another friend gave him this recipe to make life easier. Note: cooking time is time to cure.
