1. Mix the cabbage, carrots, onion, peppers, oregano, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Let rest for 30 minutes to begin releasing moisture.
2. Sanitize a quart size (4 cup) mason jar including lid with boiling hot water. Be careful to not burn yourself.
3. Pack the shredded vegetables into the mason jar, pressing down to tightly pack and release water. If the vegetables aren't covered with water, add a little bit of distilled water so they are covered. Optional: add sanitized glass weight to keep the vegetables submerged.
4. Put a lid over the jar but do not screw it on to tightly seal as gas will build up the pressure in the jars if it can't be released. Alternatively use a specialty fermentation lid.

1. In a liquid measuring cup, mix vinegar with water, sugar, oregano and salt. Stir until the sugar and salt are dissolved.
2. In a large bowl mix your shredded cabbage, julienned carrot, sliced onion, and red pepper (if using).
3. Pack the vegetables into a quart sized canning jar (wide mouth jars work best).
4. Pour the vinegar mixture over the vegetables and pack down tight. (You may not feel like you have enough brine, but after an overnight in the fridge the cabbage will start to release moisture and your brine level will rise.)

1. Take off a few outer leaves of the cabbage and set aside. Finely shred or chop cabbage with a mandolin, food processor (with slicing disc) or sharp knife.
2. Thinly slice onion in half rings. Shred carrots with a grater or using a veggie peeler to create long flat strips.
3. In a large bowl, place half of all the ingredients except for jalapeno. Layer on the remaining half of the ingredients. Let sit for about 10 -20 minutes allowing the veggies and salt to merge and extract the natural juices. Use a pounder, large pestle, or your hands to macerate the mixture.
4. Distribute jalapeno rings in the bottom of the jars (or chili flakes, if using) and then fill up the jars with the cabbage mixture packing tightly, pressing down with the pounder, leaving a 1 or 2 inch space at the top. It should be juicy.
