Make this gorgeous kraut from kale and cabbage with the extra nutrition of dulse ( seaweed is packed with nutrients that are essential for everyday life, and all sea vegetables are a good source of iodine. Nutritional Values Dulse is rich in protein and boasts the highest content of iron of any food source which may make it a nutritional snack for woman or those who are anemic. Contains all essential amino acids. Dulse seaweed is an excellent source of: Vitamin A, C, D and E Calcium Iodine Phosphorus Magnesium Manganese, Vitamins B1 and B2)
While this recipe calls for dulse that has been smoked with apple wood if you can find any, you can also use any seaweed to complete the recipe. Once you mix and knead it you put it in a jar weighed down and leave it to ferment for a week or tow and once it is as sour as you like then split it in to smaller jars and keep in fridge. It will keep for up to a year but the taste is best the first six months. Vegetable Gardener shares the recipe ( scroll down on her page to find the recipe) so we can all make some of this probiotic rich kraut with kale, another veggie loaded with nutrients.
