Do Germans really eat sauerkraut?

- One thing everyone knows about German cuisine is that it's really heavy on the sauerkraut. Is this true, or is this just a meaningless stereotype? And what's the history of sauerkraut anyway?

If there is THE ONE GERMAN DISH, this would be - drumroll - bread. Bread in so many variations, normale people would go mad. From cheap wheat bread to fancy sourdough rye bread to lye roll knitted into weird shapes, it is awesome.
Schmidt54 Yes and it is the food I miss the most if I'm abroad...
I really like to eat wat ever the lokal cuisine has to offer no matter were I am in the world, from the Americas over Africa to Asia I always find a large enough variety of meals to not miss Germany. But bread? Oh no it's horrible, even if they have some sort of bread that I like there is no variety! I'm used to buy a different type of bread every few days to never get bored.
After some month without it I would choose a fresh loaf of German bread over a month of free meals at a Guide Michelin Star restaurant any time :D
Between the bread and the beer, I wonder how Germans with celiac disease survive.
@@riflemanm16a2 they dont its like alcohol tolerance do something long enough (over generations of people) and you will have a increased rate that tolerate it. Jokes aside there are multiple gluton free breads in germany and semi okay glutonless beer.
we even have a tv show with a speaking piece of bread its called Bernd das Brot
@@riflemanm16a2 they didn't, hence very few people here have it. Evolution at its core: survival of the fittest - if you can't consume the main food source of your region, chances of your genes surviving are running towards 0
As far as i know, there was a statistic, that said the per capita consumption of sauerkraut in the USA is more than in Germany, because of the HotDogs.
wait, hot dog with sauerkraut? seriously? oO
Yes New York Style ist with Sauerkraut and it is my favourite Style
but isn't a hot dog fast food that you eat with your hands, while sauerkraut isn't fast food and you eat it with at least a fork (if not fork and knife)?
montanus777 Yes, but if one puts the sauerkraut on the hot dog (in a bun), then the whole thing can be eaten without the need for a fork and knife.
ah, now i get it. you're talking about krautsalat - not sauerkraut.
I feel like Rotkraut, i.e. "red cabbage", is a far more prevalent addition to meals here o:
I‘d say it‘s 50:50 ( at least in my home state Bavaria)
But both tastes like shit.
@@zantos4853 Your poor tastebuds :(
I was once on a class trip for a week and the places we stayed at offered Rotkraut daily, so much so that I stopped eating it lol
Rotkohl, but yeah where I live Rotkohl is much more prevalent
The next two videos: "Do Englishmen really drink tea?" and "Do Belgians really eat fries?" :D
I was making fun of stereotypes. Although in my experience, those two are "more true" than the Sauerkraut one (in terms of actual consumption).
However, the stuff they sell at McDonald's is hardly fries (especially once you've had the Belgian original) and chips and fries are technically two different things as well.
But if you want, you can change it to Englishmen with fish and chips and Turks with tea...
Well, actually the average north western german (east frisia) drinks more tea then the average brit. But then, we got the same weather and humour, so it's not surprising.
Fries?!?! You mean the Waffle! There is nothing more Belgian than a Waffle. Its their second official currency behind the euro. #TheBuglePodcast #JohnOliver
I would argue that fries are more Belgian than waffles, though maybe not by much. (Who invented the waffles actually?) I haven't had a homemade meal in Belgium without fries, but we only once made waffles. And out of the Belgians I know, some don't like waffles, but everyone likes fries. Not a very large sample size, but the fries stalls have very good business with the locals whereas the waffle stalls seem to be more popular with tourists.
And if there is a second currency, it is fries! :D
The point is that it really is an extreme stereotype which isn't really true. We Germans do have Sauerkraut as a dish and some Germans do eat it from time to time. But as stated in the video 1 Euro per person per year is NOTHING - that's one jar of sauerkraut a year. I'm pretty sure Brits drink more tea than that.
You totally missed the connection between Krauts and Limeys. To prevent scurvy on long sea voyages, German sailors ate sauerkraut (hence "Krauts" for Germans), while English sailors drank lemon or lime juice (hence "Limeys" for Englishmen).
Oh, I didn't miss it. I just didn't mention it.
Alright then :-)
As he mentioned, both have basically the same purpose - vitamin C.
Right, but I agree that it's an amusing similarity that both groups of Sailors got nicknames based on how they fought against Scurvy.
Too bad the hydrochloric acid idea didn't pick of (as a treatment against scurcy), then we'd have the 'acids' as sailor slang, lol
Ich esse Sauerkraut, aber jetzt auch nicht so oft. Grüße aus Deutschland 🇩🇪
In our family we eat sauerkraut only in fall/autumn and winter because it is served with "heavy" dishes like filled dumplings (a regional speciality) or in a casserole with noodles and minced meat.
Cured (and slightly smoked) pork is called "Kasseler" in Germany. In the past "Kasseler" with Sauerkraut and (mashed) potatoes was a typical meal for Sundays. On the following Monday, as Sauerkraut and mashed potatoes were usually leftover, they were mixed together, resulting in a dish known to me as "Ruppsel". It is usually eaten with some sausage.
I just had Kasseler on the weekend. With Dumplings (no sauerkraut tho')
Thats how we eat it the most. But manely during Winter, sometimes with Kasknacker.
I find sauerkraut best as a side to nuremburg sausages and potato salad.
Also works with hot dogs and kasseler meat.
For the stereotype, the seafaring part is the important one, since pickled cabbage was known to help prevent scurvey, it was a specificly northern/german thing to do with most other seafaring cultures using citrus juice for it. Northern europeans could not cultivate citrustrees in their homeland and laked warm colonial holdings to do elsewhere. Since german traders still dominated the northern european trade routs up until the early 20th century anda brittish sailors usually dockt at german north sea ports anyway, it became assosiated with germans.
Those same german ports became also the predominant ports for european emmigrants tpo board a ship to aamerica, wich helpe to make pickled cabbsge a staple of the german quisine in the eyes of americans, who broght the nickname back over the Atlantik during theyr involvement in the world wars.
Do we eat it? Yes
Do we eat it often? No.
But Sauerkraut mit Speck und Schupfnudeln is great for cold Winter Days.
I mean... I could have made a two-second video and used your script for it. But I thought I should maybe get into a little more detail.
I love Sauerkraut! Actually I have planned a Sauerkraut dinner for today. Sauerkraut mit Schupfnudeln. Lecker!
Wenn mein Vater die immer macht wird die Hälfte des Sauerkrauts immer aussortiert xd
GIB. Das Zeug ist göttlich mit Schupfnudeln.
Oder Krautspätzle, soooo lecker!
Als 'Schulkinder holten wir uns bei einem Tante-Emma-Laden immer Sauerkrautsemmeln. Das war eine halbierte frische Semmel, zwischen deren Hälften Sauerkraut aus dem Steingutfaß gehäuft wurde. Der andere Renner in diesem Laden war die Schokoladensemmel: Eine halbe Tafel Milchschokolade zwischen die Häften einer Semmel. Aber leider sind resche Semmeln heutzutage selten anztreffen. - Heinz
When I was in Japan for a year my fellow German foreign student actually went to a specialty story quite often and bought imported saurkraut cans for 600 Yen a piece. (Which was roughly 5€ at that point)
I don’t eat it very often, but I always store a tin of Sauerkraut. Just in case.
It's one of those things you simply have in your pantry. Because, why wouldn't you.
I live in the US, and come from an ethnically Magyar family. We use sauerkraut in a number of dishes, notably in the Fall to Spring.
Reading the comments makes me curious about Schupfnudeln mit Sauerkraut: this sounds like a yummy warming dish.
I really like kimchi: it's goes so well with rice, and a packet will last a few meals.
Wessie P Schupfnudeln
Schupfnudeln (also called "Bubespitzle" :-) ) are really good together with Sauerkraut (with some browned onions and bacon in it).
Leave the Sauerkraut... Schupfnudeln mit Käse
Yes, Schupfnudeln with Sauerkraut is the shit. Generally, Schupfnudeln are an amazing dish.
Schupfnudeln with cheese? Sounds good, but could just as well make some Kässpätzle then :-)
In Serbia : Mom, is there any sweet to eat?
-Sweet cabbage (boiled pickeled cabbage, maybe with carrots if lucky)
The very similar thing in China (northern China) is literally also named sauerkraut (酸菜, sour cabbage) 😁 and they taste very similar. But we don't cook them in the same way.
My favorite dish with the Chinese sauerkraut is to cook it with pork with 1/3 of fat, and put shrimps in it and noodles made of potatoes. It's a type of soup very popular in northeastern China. The longer you cook it, the better it tastes.
We have like 100 different foodtypes that are more popular than sauerkraut
Hmm Kassler mit Sauerkraut und Kartoffelpü.
Also nice with Bratwurst.
But yeah, I'd say it's still a typical winter side dish here, in our household. I don't think we're doing that consciously, it's probably a matter of being used to these kind of dishes and tastes when it's cold outside and then wanting to eat them/have cravings for them in the winter :D
Hmm! Sauerkraut mit Semmelknödeln. Oder Szegentiner Gulasch (Krautfleisch). ☺
As said: Sauerkraut is a meal for winter-time - mostly.
Most time I eat it with smoked pork and knödl made out of semolina (and I mean something different than Grießnockerl, here).
Great channel. I learn something every time I watch it!
The idea of combining Schnitzel wirh Sauerkraut just crumples up my cold, dead German heart by sheer power of sacrilege.
There is preboled Sauerkraut in tins available, which you might buy at anty Store. But there is also fresh sauerkraut, which is sold at the counter of buters', but the fresh sauerkraut is available only in autum and winter. Except in areas near the Polish border, like Berlin. The (slavic) ethnic minority of the Sorbians, living in the Spreewald are famous for the world's best pickled vegetables (except the Koreans of course), especially cucumbers and sauerkraut. Thus, you can buy fresh sauerkraut in Berlin all year.
As a German, I eat a lot of Sauerkraut and Kimchi :D
Excuse me, the usage of the derogatory term, Kraut, began during the first, not second, world war. However, the colloquial term had been used since the mid-18th century. During the second world war, 'kraut' was used more by the Americans than British who started using 'jerry' due to the shape of solider helmet resembling Jeroboam or chamber pot.
Great. Now I want Kasseler mit Sauerkraut. -_-
It's quite popular, but mostly eaten in autumn or winter, as it pairs very well with the heavier, fattier dishes prepared in those seasons.
It reminds me of a Belgium friend sailing with a boat through the netherlands channels. At one sluice the operator commented the Belgian as "Friet" and my friend answered "Kaaskop" resulting the operator sending the small boat to the commercial sluice (with additional hours to pass).
Hi Andrew .. it wasn´t just cabbage that was fermented to to preserve it for winter. In the region here (SaarLorLux), it was and is actually still done with a lot of autumn vegetables like green beans and beets: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saure_Bohnen
de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saure_R%C3%BCben. Especially elder people still eat it a lot around here ...
The weird thing is that me and my family still only eat it in Winter or late fall
It's not weird at all. Throughout the generations, it simply never ceased being associated with the cold part of the year.
My mother's parents and 2 of her older sisters were born in Eastern Europe and were nominally Polish (this was before 1910 when there was no Poland) they loved sauerkraut but tended to eat the German style version once they came to the US, since the Polish style wasn't easily available and apartment dwellers don't ferment cabbage at home. So, it isn't just the Germans who eat it.
Germans are called krauts for the same reason the English are called limeys.
As you said it is due to the use on lengthy ship voyages for the avoidance of scurvy.
I know this is an old video, but I have to tell you that I'm never without sauerkraut at home, and I'm Swedish, living in Sweden. I need it in the german form, or as a full head (for sarma! Sarma is amazing! You should try it if you haven't). I also love kimchi, it goes well with traditional Swedish food as well. Yes, even pickled herring.
I probably eat more fermented cabbage than the average German, I can't resist it, it's so good!!!
I live in a predominantly Czech town in the US. Sauerkraut is a staple here. Duck, potato dumplings, and sauerkraut is a feast!
10 Traditional dishes from Austria with Sauerkraut which I think they are delicous.
Bratwurst + Sauerkraut with little beacon-pieces + fried Potatoes + Mustard + fresh shredded Horseradish
but there are so many different other sausages (I prefer smoked sausages) as well.
"Szegedin Goulash" = chopped pieces of beef + Sauerkraut + Paprika-Spice (very important because that´s why it´s called Goulash) + other spices and herbs cooked together like a stew. On the plate traditionally you might put some sour cream on it.
"Krautfleisch" = exactly the same like "Szegedin Goulash" but without the Paprika-Spice which gives the "Szegedin Goulash" the name and the typical red colour.
Smoked pork + Sauerkraut with little beacon-pieces + dumpling(either a bread-dumpling or a dumpling made of potato-doe) + mustard + fresh shredded Horseradish (instead of the dumplings it´s also often served with mashed potatoes)
Pork roast (every region have their own traditional way to roast their pork) + Sauerkraut with little beacon-pieces + dumpling (bread-dumpling or potato-dumpling) + Mustard + fresh shredded Horseradish
Pork leg (roasted, grilled) + Sauerkraut with little beacon-pieces + roasted Potatoes + Mustard + fresh shredded Horseradish
"Selchfleischknödel" = A big dumpling made of potato-doe with a "smoked pork-fillling" inside + Sauerkraut
"Krautfleckerl" = A pasta made with Sauerkraut and traditionally sourcreme and sometimes with beacon or ham, but many also use cream instead of sourcreme and some don´t use one of them at all as well but then with some beacon or ham in it.
"Schupfnudeln" = Big noodels made of potato-doe + Beacon + Sauerkraut
Bye the way, nobody is forced to eat the fresh shredded horseradish, if you can´t take it, then leave it (allthough it would be a bit ......."weenie/pussy/sissy"...... but in a humourous sense and not with an offensive meaning) And if you do, then don´t forget your kleenex, you´ll proberly need them, if you´re not used to eat fresh shredded Horseradish..
But it´s a tradition in Austria (especially in the Eastern part) to serve Mustard + fresh shredded Horseradish, both together on one plate.
Sauerkraut is what I eat when I’m in Paris. It’s one of my favorite dishes. It’s called choucroute in French.
I really only eat sauerkraut about once a year, eventhough I am German and from an all German family. I kinda like it, but it really isn't my favorite dish.
I can only speak for my family but we mainly eat Wirsing, Grünkohl and rotkohl. Can't remember when we had it the last time.
Ich esseSauerkraut nur einmal im Jahr und dann immer roh. Anfang Dezember beim Weihnachtspläzchenbacken. Da ist es der ideale Ausgleich zu dem ganzen süssen Teig. Sonst esse ich nie, Sauerkraut, und schon gar kein gekochtes.
Were it not the Yanks who called Germans, 'krauts'? British soldiers called them 'jerry' .
i love Sauerkraut, but i very much dislike Kimchi. And yes, Koreans add Kimchi to many meals and i dislike it a lot. I mostly eat McDonalds, Burger King, KFC whenever i am in South Korea but even there you aren't 100% safe from Kimchi. MCDonalds there sells "bulgogi burgers" which has a slight Kimchi taste to it and KFC sells some Korean BBQ sauce chicken that also tastes a bit like Kimchi. The biggest difference between Kimchi and Sauerkraut is that Sauerkraut tastes fresh but sour, a bit like vinegar, while Kimchi tastes less sour and more rotten if that makes sense. Kimchi is really not my thing
Didn't know I wanted to see this but I did. Great vid
I love Kimchi and there are many different styles of it to suit personal preferences. Yellow and mild to Red and strong! So tasty.
There are many dishes with Sauerkraut but if with some meat, than mostly with meat cured within the Sauerkraut. "Schlachtplatte" (a platter with cured pork, fresh cooked blood sausage and liver sausage) is perhaps the most opulent variant. Often Sauerkraut is cooked with fresh apple slices in it (at former times it would been dried fruit) or served with a side dish of apple sauce. In the Southwest it's sometimes fried in butter together with Spätzle (="Krautspätzle") or Schupfnudeln (thick hand-rolled noodles from the same dough as gnocchi).
Oh, and it was not only Sauerkraut which was salted and fermented to be preserved. Rübenkraut was made in exactly the same way from beets (and looked very similar), and the Southern German word "Gsälz" for jam does have the same origin.
Ekelhaft wer ist Schnitzel mit Sauerkraut?
Ich bin Österreicher und schon die Idee alleine ist barbarisch. xD Zu Wurst? Gut! Schweinefleisch oder Knödel? Okay! Schnitzel? Ein absolutes NoGo!
Ach ja, der Grund: Man isst zu einem Schnitzel keine Beilagen mit flüssigen oder zähflüssigen Bestandteilen, wegen der Pannade, die nicht verkleben oder sich vollsaugen darf. Also sind auch Püree und Soßen ausgeschlossen. Zu einem Schnitzel üblich sind Bratkartoffeln, Petersilkartoffeln oder Pommes. Bei mir zumindest - mag regional unterschiedlich sein.
Da kann man ja gleich Trauben mit Kräuterbutter essen. Sehr lecker!
+Alias Anybody
nicht jedes schnitzel ist paniert, nur weil die wiener ihre schnitzel panieren.
Ich komme aus dem Frankfurter Raum, im Video wurde ja schon erwähnt wie es richtig serviert wird. Das heißt mit Kartoffelbrei und einem Frankfurter Rippchen. Auf Mundart auch "Rippsche mit Kraut" genannt. Wobei da manchmal auch Brot statt dem Kartoffelbrei gereicht wird. Dazu noch Apfelwein (Ebbelwoi) aus dem Gerippte.
de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frankfurter_Rippchen
Wichtig ist dass das Rippchen vom Metzger nur noch warm gemacht wird, und zwar Topf zusammen mit dem Kraut!
de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geripptes
*isst ._.
In the Netherlands we do eat Sauerkraut. "Zuurkool"
IDK about my german familie, however this 3rd-Generation German-American consumes Sauerkraut (And Kimchi, actually!) multiple times per week.
It's just about all I want out of my vegetation. Healthy, Delicious, and lip-shockingly tart.
I feel like sauerkraut is very popular in Poland, we eat it all year long, it's so good I could eat it all day
In my family sauerkraut as far as I remember was always only eaten once every few years on special occasions such as big birthdays and I think it was mostly my grandparents who made or ordered it. I think my mother regularly buys packages of sauerkraut, but I think these are more for health reasons, losing weight, metabolism, whatever. I've never asked her. I personally don't like sauerkraut. I very much prefer and really like red cabbage, which was always part of good family meals, sunday meals at my grandparent's, christmas meals, etc.
Now i have appetite for Sauerkraut 😂
Schnitzel mit Sauerkraut. Also wirklich... Mit Bratwurst geht. Auch mit Schupfnudeln... Ich denke das stimmt soweit. Ab und zu wird es gegessen, aber nicht dauernd
Der Spitzname " Kraut " ist eigentlich älter soweit ich weiß? Angeblich aus der zeit um 18.Jhd wo es noch Probleme gab mit Skorbut bei den Seefahrern...
und die Matrosen der Hanse nahmen Sauerkraut mit auf ihren Reisen um mit genug Vitamin C versorgt zu sein
www.goethe.de/ins/gb/lp/prj/mtg/typ/sau/de5653632.htm
There are several types of Kraut and different types of Sauerkraut. You only referred to Sauerkraut, which is sold in at least 4 differant types. And I think the statistic only refers to one type only.
Not sure why this video popped, but I love sauerkraut and kimchi equally. But I can also see how someone could like one and not the other.
The cologne variant of "Sauerkraut" is to sweet for my taste, even that I live in so called "Kölner Bucht" (just geographically). Our family ate more a mix of silesian, bohemian, prussian? (hm can't remember how much of that or what it was?) and bavarian dishes.
You don't have to go around half the globe to Korea. The city of Trieste is also famous for their Capuzi Garbi which they pair with just about everything.
I went to Croatia, with my sister and dad, we went on a boat trip, there was loads of Germans and we had a load of it.
Irgendwie hab ich jetzt Bock auf Sauerkraut!
Baaaaahhh.
Ich finde es gibt kein schlimmeres Gericht🤔
Volker Racho ja
I do eat sauerkraut really often and i am german.
wenn denn schon : Eisbein mit Sauerkraut. Oder Szegeduner Gulasch . oder Nürnberger Bratwürstchen mit Kartoffelbrei und Sauerkraut.
If I remember correctly, kimshi is credited by many in the far east as conducive to longer life.
I eat sauerkraut just 2 or 3, maybe 4 times per year with fried sausage and mashed potatoes... and mustard :D wouldn't consider this as abnormal.
Why are most people watching videos on Germany German?
Cause it's so interesting to get an outside view on the own culture - I think I learn more about cultural differences to other countries by watching outsiders' videos about Germany than by watching videos about other countries. So many things I thought were quite natural don't seem so natural at all to me now ...
Wir Deutsche lieben die Nabelschau.
Das war eine wundervolle poetische und effiziente Widergabe meiner Vermutung. Nabelschau
Though honestly, kann mir gut vorstellen, dass die Franzosen es genauso mit Expaten in Frankreichen treiben. Annkathrien hat ja auch nicht unrecht. Es fühlt sich nur so deutsch an, ich weiß nicht wieso.
Ahja, weil der Deutsche gerne Besserwisse ist, denke ich. Und da ist es vielleicht besonders interessant, wenn er dann selbst beurteilt wird.
Because it gives us a view on our country from the outside perspective, so we can improve things to be better.
I'm danish, and as such am somewhere between England and Germany. Andrew's videos provide me with a look into both cultures, which i find both entertaining and enlightning.
Sauerkraut is great to have around because it's basically storable forever, but I eat it once or twice a year at best....
also great taste! Ribbsche mit Kraut is one of the regional favorites^^
Sauerkraut teasts best on a Kiachl in the Christmas season.
Actually I quite like sauerkraut after picking it up in shopping for travel munchies on several holidays in Europe. Oddly the usual stuff available from the local country deli is always made in Poland.
Sauerkraut mit Schupfnudeln oder das Szegediner Gulasch sind sehr gut. Der amerikanische Cole Slaw schmeckt aber auch.
In der Schweiz esse ich persönlich Sauerkraut eher selten und dann zB. zu (Koch-)Speck und Bohnen, dazu Salzkartoffeln und weitere Wurstwaren, wie Blut- und Leberwurst.
This question was just as stupid as "do americans only eat spam", since that is something they gave their army in the war.
I would love some sauerkraut now, please....
I never eat Sauerkraut in Schleswig-Holstein, where I live. It does not seem to be very common. I have tried it from street vendors in outdoors festivals, but I was always disappointed. The place where I very much enjoy eating sauerkraut ist actually France, where it, under the name of choucroute, has become a delicacy.
vergesst den Sauerkraut... her mit dem Rotkohl!
Video title: Do Germans really eat Sauerkraut?
Me: My mom made it today, so basically yes
I have Sauerkraut in my Lederhosen
Perhaps you should see a doctor? (JK)
you have sauerkraut in the skull, sir!
Yes! Yes! Yes! As more as better :)
I'm from Serbia, and here in Balkans sauerkraut is eaten every winter, and we use it to make sarma. A lot of sarma 😁
When I was in Germany, I met a guy whose grandmother was a Red Army soldier, and she married a german guy, and thought him how to make souerkraut. His German family didn't eat this dish before that, so...yeah, it might be a bit of a stereotype 😏
I have eaten a lot more sauerkraut in the USA than in Germany. My guess is that it was such an important food item among German immigrants to the US in the days before refrigeration that it became an important part of the German/American diet. And as eating habits evolved and changed in Germany, the descendents of the immigrants probably preserved and propagated the traditions of their ancestors, the same way the people of Quebec preserved the antique form of the French language.
As a German, I eat Choucroute at Strasbourg years ago.
german here, just had it today! we have it, we love it, we stan for it
To put things in perspective, we, the Dutch eat a lot of Sauerkraut (zuurkool) too. As it is in Germany, it is mainly a winter dish. I personally am a fan!
As an Irish lad I tried a thuring Weisswurst with Sauerkraut and it was fucking delicious
Mhhhh... Rippsche mit Kraut. Yummy! Have tried to replace the pork rips with Lederknödel? Or combine both.
When I studied in England, I wondered how well Rippsche mit Kraut would go in England as a pub food. What do you think?
could you maybe do a video about german numbers and counting? thanks
I loved my mother-in-law's sauerkraut! A bit of pork in it with mashed potatoes and gravy.
Polish people eat much more Sauerkraut than Germans...
And i like polish Sauerkraut :-)
Sauerkraut und Rippchen is also a traditional dish for January 1. It is said that eating that dish will prevent you from running out of money in the following year
carlo02116 never heard of that
Pixelside where I come from (middle of Hesse) it is
Alter...Hab ich jetzt Bock auf Gulasch mit Knödeln und Sauerkraut :) Aber stimmt schon: Die klassischen Gerichte, bei der Sauerkraut eine gute Beilage darstellen passen auch nicht so recht in den Sommer!
Gulasch mit Sauerkraut???
@@chrstiania That's called Szegediner Gulasch, tastes amazing if done right (= the sauerkraut still has some acidity)
One of the best dishes I have ever tried was Haggis with Sauerkraut and fried Potatoes, even though I am almost certain, that most people have never heard of such a combination.
Here in Monterrey, Mexico we had sauerktraut as a side with a Hotdog (from a german themed food truck), how weird is that as a combination? Me and my girlfriend actually enjoyed it.
we eat it 1 or maybe 2 times a year. usually just once on the 1st of january.
Schnitzel with Sauer... WHAT? How? This is madness!
As I was in Czech republic, i had the impression that they ate much more "sauerkraut" than the Germans do. Maybe it is because their meals are more traditional (and very good, as far as i can tell).
Pheasant sauteed with Sauerkraut. Excellent when you got stuck with an older bird.
It also depends on the region; when I lived in Franconia I had it more often than nowadays in North-Rhine Westphalia. Here will usually only have it with hearty meals in wintertime in lieu of others vegatables; usually combined with mashed potatoes, and smoked pork neck or loin.
In Franconia Sauerkraut was available all day long; any guesthouse had a pot full of Sauerkraut frequently held warm on the oven; it is often eaten as a snack in combination with Bratwurst and bread.
I find it quite difficult to find actual sauerkraut in Franconia, though. What I get here is usually Weinkraut which is not nearly sauer enough. :D
Well, the recipe is quite different depending on the German States. You sound to have to made the Sauerkraut experience in Swabia (Hengstenberg).
Actually, in Saxony. There's absolutely no place for wine in sauerkraut. :D
I have never eaten so much Sauerkraut as in my year in the US. My host family had sauerkraut with pork chops and mashed potatos at least once a week. They all loved it. I did not. The pork was cooked in the sauerkraut. I am more of a roasted meat eater.
Roasted? Kasseler gehört im Sauerkraut gekocht.
my mom loves the stuff, will eat like a bowl full of it. i think thats ruined any chance of me liking it. lol
Not so long ago I ate Putenschnitze überbacken mit Sauerkraut und Käse at my work place cantina.
