Cabbage is fermented on certain days, the phase of the moon is monitored, old people will say without mistake on which day it is better to pickle cabbage, and other vegetables. This is usually done on the waning moon, the so-called old man. A popular sign believes that it is better not to start sauerkraut during the full moon period - since fermented cabbage at this time may turn out not elastic and crispy, but soft and sluggish. Who would like such sauerkraut? It is better to take into account the phase of the moon, so sauerkraut will taste better.
