Ingredients
Instructions
- Step 1
Using a sharp knife or a mandolin, thinly slice the cabbage and pack it into 2 32-oz (4 cup) mason jars. You might have to really pack it in there to get it all to fit but it shrinks up quite a bit as it pickles.
- Step 2
In a large measuring cup, mix together the boiling water with apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, pepper, and garlic. Mix to combine until all of the sugar and salt is dissolved.
- Step 3
Divide the vinegar mixture evenly between the 2 mason jars. The jar should be filled up to the neck but if it’s not, you can add in a little extra water. Seal tightly and give it a little shake to make sure everything is combined.
- Step 4
Let sit for at least 2 hours to pickle, but you get best results after 24 hours. This lasts great in the fridge for about 2 weeks! ENJOY!
