It tastes kinda like a sour pickle....I cut up weiners and onions and saute in butter untill brown and then add the saurkraut and let it all get hot. Voila: Saurkraut & Weiners!! YUM-O!
You could peel and slice about 4 medium potatoes and 2 medium sized onions, put in a large pan with some smoked sausage cut into chunks and a jar of sauerkraut add about 2 cups of water salt and peppers, leave to simmer on low heat for around 1 1/2 hrs - 2hrs. serve with some fresh crusty bread. mmmmmm it's a meal in itself really comforting on those wet and cold horrible days like today
