Your sea salt is absolutely fine for Sauerkraut....also about the smell -- I've grown up with having my mother make it, and I have never found it to be repulsive, because in my youth, I have had many delicious meals with baked sauerkraut and pork chops (baked long and slowly) mashed potatoes, and side order of mustard -- so one tends to associate the smell with the taste and it certainly is not offensive to me!. Eleanore Oh, by the way, my mother is 93, and very healthy....no medications in her life, and looks like she may surpass 100....

Can anyone tell me what the difference is between Sea Salt (which I know is unrefined) and pickling salt? I just made my first batch of sauerkraut and used sea salt. Will I have an inferior/wasted batch of kraut? It has a few days to go before it's finished. Also, I tried the cultured cabbage juice recipe from the files and the taste and smell was a little repulsive. I do like sauerkraut so hope this works so I don't have to start over.
