Ingredients

• 1 medium head green cabbage
• 0.5 medium red onion
• 1 tablespoon sea salt
• 1 cup white vinegar
• 1 cup water
• 2 tablespoons erythritol
• 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
• 1 teaspoon black peppercorns
• 1 teaspoon dried dill weed
• 0.5 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• 1 bay leaf

Directions

Step 1

Remove the outer leaves and core from the cabbage. Thinly slice the cabbage into fine shreds using a sharp knife or a mandoline.

Step 2

Thinly slice the red onion and set it aside.

Step 3

Place the cabbage and red onion in a large mixing bowl. Sprinkle sea salt over the vegetables and toss to combine. Let it sit for 10 minutes to allow the cabbage to soften.

Step 4

In a medium saucepan, combine the white vinegar, water, erythritol, mustard seeds, black peppercorns, dried dill weed, crushed red pepper flakes, and bay leaf.

Step 5

Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently to dissolve the erythritol completely.

Step 6

Once the mixture has reached a boil, remove it from the heat and carefully pour it over the cabbage and onion mixture. Make sure the liquid covers the vegetables entirely.

Step 7

Let the mixture cool to room temperature, then transfer it to mason jars or airtight containers.

Step 8

Seal the containers and refrigerate for at least 24 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 9

Serve chilled as a keto-friendly side or as a tangy topping for your favorite keto dishes.
