There is nothing special about pickling the lumps. Just wash them and put them in a large vat, spread them in a layer and sprinkle with coarse salt until they are all gone. Finally, to enhance the taste, Song Nanting also poured a bottle of high-proof sorghum wine into the vat. Then she covered it with a lid made of sorghum stalks and placed it at the door.
Because of the salt, there is no need to worry about freezing in winter.
Of course, sauerkraut is an indispensable dish in Northeast China.
Song Nanting also asked for many methods this year and prepared to pickle sauerkraut herself.
Wash the cabbage, boil a pot of water, put the cabbage butts in it for a while, then put them all in a jar, sprinkle some salt in it, pour in boiled water, seal it and put it in a dark place.
The weather in Northeast China is getting colder day by day, so Song Nanting is not worried that the food will go bad if she pickles it now.
It was already noon when they finished their work. They cooked a pot of noodles and ate them, and then continued to clean the vegetable garden in the afternoon.
The cucumbers and tomatoes had been pulled out long ago. The cucumbers were completely gone, but the tomatoes were pulled up by the roots and planted in the cellar by Song Nanting. She didn't know whether the remaining fruits on them could last a few more days.
Then there are the beans. The vines have dried up, and the few beans left on them don’t look good anymore. There’s even some rust-like stuff on them.
But it does not affect the taste. The beans are very crispy at this time and taste very good after being fried.
This thing can produce a lot of beans in one crop after another. In the summer, Song Nanting dried a lot of beans. Now she picks some good ones and pickles them into sour beans.
Sour beans are pickled in the same way as sauerkraut, and are eaten in a similar way. Stir-fry the pork belly with the skin, then add a few red peppers and stir-fry. They taste amazing when served chilled.
Of course, the vegetable garden cannot be left idle. Song Nanting plans to follow the example of others and plant spinach and garlic.
These two things are quite frost-resistant.
When the seedlings emerge, sprinkle some wood ash on them and cover them with straw mat, and they can survive for a long time.
