BAVARIAN SAUERKRAUT



Bavarian Sauerkraut image

This recipe has to be the best tasting sauerkraut I've ever had. Traditionally, my family serves pork and sauerkraut every New Year's Day for luck in the coming year. I love cabbage as a general rule and like most sauerkraut recipes, but they can be quite sour depending on how it is prepared. Sadly I don't remember who gave me this recipe and who deserves the credit, since it was pulled from a collection of hand-written recipes I've kept for years. I made it as a side dish for New Year's Day dinner and it was a complete hit! This is certainly not your typical 'sour' sauerkraut recipe.

SAUERKRAUT FROM THE NASCHMARKT



Sauerkraut from the Naschmarkt image

Vienna is home to the Naschmarkt, a famous open air market featuring...everything. There is one stand known to anyone who has ever been to the Naschmarkt for its Sauerkraut. If the owner likes you he'll take you aside & ask you how you intend to prepare it & then proceed to tell you the "proper way". I am posting this in response to a request & therefore do not have exact measurements for the soup & wine as I haven't made this since last fall but you really can't go wrong. It is truely authentic Viennese Sauerkraut!(The next time I make this I'll edit to be a little more exact)

Time P7DT25m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 5

5 pounds cabbage, thinly sliced
1 onion, thinly sliced
3 tablespoons sea salt
3 cloves garlic, minced, or more to taste
water to cover

Steps:

  • Mix cabbage, onion, sea salt, and garlic together in a bowl. Firmly pack mixture into a large, clean, food-grade plastic bucket. The cabbage will start to make its own brine as the salt starts to draw out the water of the cabbage.
  • Fill a large, clean, food-grade plastic bag with water and place over the salted cabbage mixture so none of the cabbage is exposed to air.
  • Allow cabbage to ferment in a cool, dry place, 1 to 4 weeks (depending on how tangy you like your sauerkraut). The temperature of the room you ferment the sauerkraut in should not rise above 70 degrees F (21 degrees C).
