Cold Sauerkraut Salad image

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!
