Step 1

Bring 4 cups of water to a boil.

Step 2

Place cabbage in a fine mesh strainer. Very slowly pour boiling water over the cabbage. Rinse with cold water. Drain well, pressing out as much water as possible.

Step 3

Add cabbage to large bowl. Add carrot, onion, jalapeno, oregano, and vinegar and toss well to combine. I like to put it all in a bowl with a lid and shake it.

Step 4

Curtido tastes best after it has marinated for several hours or days, but you can enjoy it fresh if you’d like.

Step 5

Store curtido in a covered container or mason jar for up to 1 week in the fridge.
