wench bought some because its supposed to be very healthy.
i thought it tasted rank
can you mix it into things to make it bearable? looking for some inspiration.
on the other hand, she picked up some Kimchi, which i think is the Korean version, and i quite liked that. ive been adding it to cheese sarnies.
the trouble is its many times the price of sauerkraut. ____________________ current bike Yamaha Thunderace.

Fuck the price
Kimchi is proper delicious English food and good for you too.
I know it's English cos I buy mine locally.
Sauerkraut is foreign EU muck and nasty shit made
by filthy foreigners who probably piss in it. ____________________ bikers smell of wee |

I had sauerkraut once, in Germany actually. I seem to remember it was ok, nothing to write home about.
Better still, home made spiced red cabbage, served steaming hot from the oven. I recommend recipes of this by Delia Smith and Rick Stein ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

Germas aren't big into spicy food as a general rule. If you make your own saurkraut, you can pep it up a bit with some garlic, mustard seeds, cloves, peppercorns and maybe throw a dried chilli in the jar.
It's supposed to be very beneficial to your gut because it's fermented, full of probiotics. Funny how anything that's supposed to be good for your guts also makes you fart hugely and frequently. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink.

Think of the planet!
Sorry, wrong conversation...
Rick Stein's recipe isn't actually a spiced one if I remember rightly. But Delia's one is heaven - spices are cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg. Other ingredients:red cabbage, apple, onion, garlic, wine vinegar, brown sugar, a little butter, seasoning. I could just wolf down a plateful of the stuff on its own
Never tried it cold though, come to think of it. Probably would be quite nice still. I just always gently reheated it for next day or whenever.
My favourite in Germany was Jager Schnitzel with chips and mayo.

Sauerkraut in perogies instead of potato is quite popular were l live (Lots Ukrainian descendants). On its own its quite good fried with garlic.
Really good in a reuben sandwich too.

Czechs eat sauerkraut but very rarely as is. We mostly use it as an ingredient to cook traditional meals.
My favourite being the ''Zelnacka'' which is a Sauerkraut soup with sausage and potatoes, have a look here: https://www.cooklikeczechs.com/zelnacka-czech-sauerkraut-soup/
Have also look at ''segedinsky gulas (Székelygulyás)''.
We also use sauerkraut as a side dish to roast pork and other meats. Once again, not as is, but cooked. Diced onions, oil/fat, cumin, sauerkraut, water... cook until the sauerkraut gets soft, then use flour or grated potato to thicken it, add salt and pepper.
NOTE: If the sauerkraut is too pungent, wash it in cold water before use.
EDIT: I do not use flour when cooking Sauerkraut soup. I start the same as described in the recipe, but instead of flour I then throw two medium size grated potatoes into the soup and boil them a bit to thicken the soup. You may also use potato starch powder. Also, instead of the chicken stock I use beef stock or even plain water, when I don't have the time.

Funny you should say that. It's not quite the case for sauerkraut, but a friend of mine (60 y.o.) once told me about his job, that he had 40+ years ago at a cabbage processing farm, where they trampled the cabbage. One of the ladies doing the job, bare feet marching in a vat full of cabbage, needed to go to the loo. Long story short, she removed her panties and pissed right into to the cabage, then carried on with her job. ____________________ '87 Honda XBR 500, '96 Kawasaki ZX7R P1, '90 Honda CB-1, '88 Kawasaki GPz550, MZ 150 ETZ

Thing is, like most foodstuffs, you can get good sauerkraut and you can get nasty sauerkraut. Think of the range of quality you can get in a Chinese takeaway.
You could go to one place and the chicken chow mein should be just chucked straight in the bin without even stopping to put the lid back on ... but if you find a decent chicken chow mein, you want to marry it.
I would marry that sandwich and have its babies. Looks fucking 'andsome. Is it on rye bread? I can just feel the sensual schmooze of the melted cheese and all that grease leaking out between your fingers. Fuck yes. ____________________ Not nearly as interesting in real life. |

I made red cabbage this weekend to go with the roast pork (shoulder). It was well nice.
Chucked it all into a saucepan with a knob of butter, an espresso cup of water and half an apple, oh yeah and a handful of raisins, put a lid on it and cooked the bollocks out of it for twenty mins, then splashed a bit of vinegar on it. Turned it off and left it to soak overnight.
Then when the senior consort picked me up, I drained all the juice off it, put it in a tupperware and once it got to his house, I just nuked it and tossed it around in a bit more vinegar, salt and pepper.
He reckoned he'd never normally consider red cabbage as a thing for eating, but he said he really enjoyed it.
