PENNSYLVANIA DUTCH AMISH GINGER SAUERKRAUT



Pennsylvania Dutch Amish Ginger Sauerkraut image

I lived in PA Dutch area for several years in my mid teens and although very, very different from Japanese cooking, I fell in love with some of the local specialties such as sauerkraut, beet eggs, sauerkraut and pork, pot pie (chicken stew with homemade thick noodle) or botpie, numerous relishes and pickles, and ice cream made from local milk. This dish is a bit more to it than the regular braised sauerkraut with onions and in my opinion much tastier one with a greater depth of flavor.
