COLD SAUERKRAUT SALAD

We always shared our Fourth of July celebration with my aunt and uncle. Besides the hot dogs, hamburgers and Uncle Bob's steamed clams, my aunt always had something new for us to try-like this unusual salad. Like my aunt, you may have to coax others to try it at first...but you'll have a hard time keeping them from taking a second helping.

COLD SAUERKRAUT SALAD

I love to make my own fermented vegetables and I'm especially partial to Sauerkraut as it is so easy to make. I wanted to try using a batch of fresh Sauerkraut I had just made, in a salad, and came up with this recipe. This cold salad is bursting with flavor and is a great side especially with grilled meats. I love the crunch...

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 c sauerkraut, rinsed and drained
1 c celery, chopped
1 small carrot, shredded
1 large jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped fine
3 Tbsp capers
1 bunch green onions, chopped
1/4 c white wine vinegar
1/4 c vegetable oil
3/4 c sugar
1 tsp ground black pepper
salt to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Rinse Sauerkraut and let drain. I used homemade Sauerkraut but canned, bagged or jarred will work.
  • 2. In a large bowl mix Sauerkraut and all veggies, combine well. Add salt to taste. It shouldn't need much.
  • 3. In a small bowl mix vinegar, sugar, oil and pepper. Stir until sugar is mostly dissolved. Pour dressing over vegetable mixture and combine well.
  • 4. Refrigerate up to one hour or overnight. Serve cold as a side with your favorite meal and enjoy!
