The Analog Cub Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Here's something that's pretty polarizing with people I know. Do you like the kraut? I think sauerkraut is the tits. But only when served hot. Eating a bratwurst without kraut is blasphemous. http://www.marions-kochbuch.com/food-pic/bratwurst-with-sauerkraut.jpg 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleMoon Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Gee, I wonder where this came from. I love sauerkraut but only once in a great while. I have to be in the mood for it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You guys really put me in the mood for kraut, for sure. Without the corned beef though, please... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narps Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 (edited) sauerkraut is the tits. http://www.marions-kochbuch.com/food-pic/bratwurst-with-sauerkraut.jpgTruth be told I enjoy both of these. One I can get and have whenever I want the other not so much unfortunately... :) Edited March 14, 2015 by Narpsberg 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tombstone Mountain Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Sauerkraut, Bratwurst, Kartoffelbrei :ebert:http://i1253.photobucket.com/albums/hh597/greyfriar2112/sauerbreibrat_zps0am3v2vb.jpgGrey--this is german soul food. Here's a twist on Kraut which you'll hopefully dig, Mutti thinks I'm a idiot for ruining good kraut, but see for yourself: 28 ounces Kraut1.5 pounds andouille (cajun) saugsage--thinly sliced or cubed. About an 1/8 inch or cubed1 large onion, yellow sliced2 tlbs garlic minced2 bay leafs and believe it or not1/4 to 1/2 cup brown sugar sear sausage/onions till translucent. Mix with other ingredients and put in oven 325 degrees, for an hour and a half.Serve with german potatoes. My mom tried it for the second time, and my Dad tells me she makes it in secret--and doesn't share 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greyfriar Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 For me the best and easiest way to cook Sauerkraut is to roast some bacon, stir it in the Kraut, add a large peeled onion (the whole thing) and a few table spoons of sugar. Now let it simmer for at least 1 hour. That's it. No big deal, but a great result. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't add that sugar, the sauerkraut is too sour. :) It's good mixed in with mashed potatoes too.

Narps Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 I love it on hot dogs!!I thought that was just about the only way to eat it. My mother, however, makes some dish with sauerkraut, sausage and noodles that is excellent. It is the only other way I have had it except on a hot dog in my life... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
