Found Hope Store’s secret about the pickled red cabbage
The secret step that truly elevates this humble vegetable to gourmet status is the pickling process. Infused with a medley of cider vinegar, sugar, salt, garlic, shallot, and a secret blend of herbs, the cabbage undergoes a major transformation. As it marinates in this tangy elixir, it absorbs the flavours like a sponge, becoming a symphony of notes- sweet, sour, and savoury notes.
The addition of mustard seeds, peppercorns, and caraway seeds leads to a delightful complexity, awakening the palate with every bite. It leaves a lingering sensation that begs for another mouthful.
But beyond its culinary prowess, the Found Hope Store’s Pickled Red Cabbage is a celebration of tradition. It takes us back to a time when preserving food wasn’t just a necessity but a craft passed down through generations. So, whether you’re topping off a sandwich, accompanying a cheese platter, or simply indulging in a spoonful straight from the jar, let the Found Hope Store’s Pickled Red Cabbage take you on a journey through flavour and tradition. It’s more than just a condiment; it’s a taste of history, served with love from Hither Green.
