sauerkraut (sour cabbage?)

Is this German word, sauerkraut, commonly used in English, too? Ich habe keine idee was sauerkraut auf English ist...


In last summer, I pickled some cabbage and made some souerkraut.


Ingredients are


- a whole cabbage
- 7-8 big spoonfuls of salt (or as much as you feel necessary)



Some people make it with some good herbs, but I make it only with salt.

Slice a cabbage. Sprinkle enough salt. Leave it about a week before you can start eating (place something heavy enough). Parts of cabbage gets rotten if not dipped in the pickle liquid. So, make sure to place something heavy enough.
