I love sauerkraut. You are making me a hot dog? Do you have sauerkraut? You don't? I'll pass, thanks. There is no such thing as a hot dog without the 'kraut. That is all. Thankyou.

Wait, where in Aus do they serve hotdogs with saurkraut? I thought that was quite the US thang. Or maybe its a Sydney thing? ;)

You can buy it in supermarkets But don't. Shit's terrible.

You need to make that shit yourself! and eat it with sausage and potatoes. Now I'm hungry again

Saurkraut is awesome, but the hotdog I can live without. In fact, I'll puke if you give me one.

At Victoria markets, Tryace. In Melbourne. Where you live, and I don't. FOR SHAME.

Like a little lost lamb crying for its mama, kielbasa cooked with honey mustard and onions cries out for saurkraut.
Then there's the pickled red cabbage, the lack of which RUINS holiday dinners for my husband. I made some from scratch one year—cabbage, vinegar, apples, sugar, endless cooking...
It was indistinguishable from the stuff you get in a jar.

Brats and Kraut washed down with a Spaten Oktoberfest - C/D

This year you can tell your husband to buy his own damn cabbage, then.

I've made my own sauerkraut. It was awesome. I should make more.

He tried to tell me not to make it. But I didn't listen. I was having a brief paroxysm of good wifeyness. Got over it. Back to the stuff in the jars. It really is pretty good. A sweet 'n' sour undernote in your heaping forkful of turkey, stuffing, cranberry jelly, gravy and mashed potatoes. This is merging with the "good things about autumn" thread...

Wait a minute! REUBENS!!!!!!!!
Oh my god. How could I have forgotten.

kraut is awesome. I'm having a rueben later tonite actually.

and its so so good on a hot dog.

yay.

From a jar is fine by me. There's so much in a sauerkraut jar that I need a busload of sausages just to use it all up.

In a world without refrigeration, sauerkraut was brilliant. It still has greatness by virtue of its simplicity.

sauerkraut is the best when cooked for hours with a big pork shoulder!

― Wiggy (Wiggy), Sunday, 2 October 2005 17:28 (twenty years ago)

Great stuff. lovely with Slowly cooked belly pork, sausages and juniper berries.

When we lived in Redding, the best extremely-low-budget meal in town was to go to Costco and get the polish-and-a-soda ($1.50) and load it up with kraut, then go around the grocery aisles and get free samples of a couple of desserts.
