    Pour the two vinegars into a pan and add the spices, seeds, berries and leaves. Bring to the boil, then remove from the heat and leave it to infuse for about an hour.
  • STEP 3
    When the cabbage is salted, rinse it thoroughly under cold water. Pack the cabbage into 2 clean, sterilised jars.
