November is the best month for pickling cabbage for the winter. It is during this period, when the harvest is harvested and the work in the garden is completed, that the ideal time for pickling and pickling cabbage comes.
November is the ideal time for pickling cabbage, because right now, when the harvest is harvested and all the work in the garden is done, there is time to prepare pickles for the winter. Cabbage is a vegetable that can be stored for a long time, but only frozen, in which its taste is somewhat reduced. That is why you have to salt and ferment the cabbage so that you can enjoy delicious crispy cabbage throughout the winter.
So, in November, late-ripening cabbage is most often completely harvested, which, due to its juiciness, is just suitable for pickling. As for the choice of the day for the procedure, in order for the product to end up being tasty and stored for a long time, the work is best done on the growing moon. In November 2017, these are periods from November 1 to 3, as well as from 19 to 30. But on the full moon and new moon, it is better to refuse salting.
In addition to the growth of the moon, you must also pay attention to the constellations in which the moon is. It is believed that during periods when the heavenly body (in the growth phase) is in the signs Taurus, Aries, Sagittarius, Leo and Capricorn, the fermentation processes of salted cabbage are somewhat accelerated, which does not allow the product to deteriorate or become soft. In November 2017, the growing moon in the above constellations will take place on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 22nd, 23rd, 28th, 29th and 30th.
And finally, it is worth noting that the best days for pickling and pickling cabbage are "men's" days - Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. Therefore, try to allocate one of the above days of the week specifically for harvesting cabbage, in this case, getting a low-quality product will be minimized, of course, provided that the recipe and storage conditions have not been violated.
