    This recipe is tried and tested, but I boil the water, let it cool, meanwhile I shred the cabbage and carrots, add bay leaves and allspice, fill the jars tightly and pour in warm brine. The next day I pierce the cabbage with a wooden spatula, cover the jar with gauze and put a glass of water in it. On the third day I eat, and I have a very pleasant appetite, and I wish you all the best.
