Sausage and Sauerkraut Tips
What goes well with sauerkraut and kielbasa?
Turn this sauerkraut dinner into a German beer hall supper with giant soft pretzels, German potato dumplings or classic apfelkuchen (apple cake) for dessert.
Should I rinse sauerkraut before using?
If you’re fond of the powerful punch of sauerkraut you can skip the rinse to impart more flavor. Rising will remove some flavor and some of the sodium content.
What is a good seasoning for sauerkraut?
Plain sauerkraut can be jazzed up with Granny Smith apples, sweet onions, caraway seeds or ground coriander. Go an extra (simple!) step and make a batch of homemade sauerkraut and season to your taste!
