Simply Mama, I don't normally comment because I watch several channels and some of the comments are down right abusive! But i wanted to say I really love your channel, I learn a lot, and I congradulate you on your flexibility.

This reminds me of why I like kimchi so much, pickled cabbage is my favorite

[j.ramirez]

This looks so good 👍🏼
My MIL is from El Salvador she uses the same mix of veggies but for a quick fix she will just use a jalapeño can and pour the juice that’s in that in the mix. It’s so good and spicy. Some times she will just buy a bag of coleslaw and a jalapeño can and it’s just the same.

Oh my God! You did it the RIGHT way!!! Thank you for making it traditionally Salvadoran! Thank you! I feel respected. Just thank you for this. Thank you

In my house, I learned to put the cabbage and veggies to soften with hot water (soak for 10 mins or so), or with salt (half a cup for a large half of a cabbage head, let stand for half an hr, then rinse) to speed up the pickling. Then add the vinegar and water mixture as shown. Don't add salt if you did the salt maceration though.
I store mine in quart mason jars and add peppers to some, extra onions to another. Choice is the spice of life! 😄
They're best if eaten within a month.

I tired this and other curtido recipes, by far this is our favorite!!! I love the simplicity in your videos. Thank you and God bless you gift!😊

[alandgomez]

Yessir! At some point I'll make this. I've gotten my girl on board with pupusas (because duh) but not so much with curtido lol. Sup to all my Salvadorans and Latinos out there! And sup to anybody else who's reading this, be it Black, Asian, Middle Eastern, White, Islander etc. Be cool and stay safe 👍🏽.

This is exactly how my mama always makes her slaw that not mayo-based, except she uses celery seed for the spice. I’m going to try this next time I make this kind of slaw.

Hello mija, I showed the video to my hubby and now he wants me to make some. Thank you for sharing your amazing recipes, I love your channel! ❤🤗

[justaddmusclecom]

I have like 5 bottles of different variations of this in my fridge lol. I reuse all my glass bottles for it and just keep adding ingredients as it gets used.

[HeySarahGurl]

I’m dating a real swell guy who’s half Salvadorian and he loves papusas! I’m making this and pickling it for the next day for when I make the papusas. He’s vegetarian so I’m making my own mushroom based papusas so I’m excited for him to try it! It’ll be the fifth time I’ve cooked for him and so far he’s loved everything! Fingers crossed! This was such an easy to follow video and I’ll definitely be subscribing!

[brigchavezfam.]

[mercyverdugo]

Salvadoran pickle cabbage is delicious with pupusas 😋

Thank you! I made this. Super easy and delicious. It was best for me on the second day. So I need to make this at least 2 days before I need it lol. 😊
