Sauerkraut Recipes – All about Sauerkraut – Video
This movie has lots of interesting facts as well as following the fermentation process through 12 days and packing the finished product. It also includes a few tasty sauerkraut recipes for sauerkraut salad and a super tasty Reuben sandwich made with ham and European Mustard.
Sauerkraut has been home-made for thousands of years. My own family has certainly made their sauerkraut recipes for centuries in Transylvania and I have made these Sauerkraut recipes with my mother and grand mother, who taught me how.
