Sauerkraut

[Selivan]

As you know, in the old days there was no refrigerator and freezer, so people tried to save vegetables ...
One of the ways is "Cabbage Quenching" ..
------------------------------------------
In Europe, especially Germany, they do not know how to sour cabbage ...
Germans love sauerkraut, but they do not know how to cook it.
Germans BOIL cabbage before souring ...
They kill all the vitamins and beneficial microbes that make the P ..

=================================================
In Russia there is no such outrage ...
- Cabbage shredded
- Cabbage is packed in rows and sprinkled with salt
- Cabbage is pressed down with a heavy object
- Cabbage is located in a warm place at a temperature of 23. Celsius 5 days ...
-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------
Here is my sauerkraut, which I now eat ..

================================================
Sauerkraut in Russia is the basis for preparing many dishes
- Siberian Shchi
- Salads
- Rassolnik
- Snack with vodka
- garnishes
- And so on...

===================================================
As far as I understand, Americans do not know what "Sauerkraut" ???
Poor people ...

Sounds good. A little crunchy still? No vinegar? Just salt? Or does the vinegar-y thing happen from letting it sit in the salt?

 

[Auld Phart]

Yes, I know, totally off topic, but...

Sour Kraut

Happy kraut

 

[OldLady]

Selivan! Goddamit, answer me. DOES IT TASTE VINEGARY OR NOT?

Why not?
The Germans have not learned how to cook sauerkraut ...

Thanks, I guess I didn't take him seriously. Do you know the answer to my question?

 

[Selivan]

He has you in ignore. You may have forgotten. I like sauerkraut, too.

Any person sent to ignore me can write me a personal message ...
- Introduce yourself
- Explain why I sent him to ignore
- apologize
- I will consider this proposal and the decision will be made, as at the meetings of the Communist Party of the USSR ...
As is known, the Party has always accepted only POSITIVE decisions

Who told this nonsense?

 

[Bruce_T_Laney]

Dear OP'er,

Oldlady was asking a question about if the Kraut becomes Vinegary over time because of fermentation or do you add the Vinegar?

( Let see if he has me on iggy... )

Hello, old man ...
It's strange that you are sleeping too much today ...
Sugared the cabbage?
-------------------------------------------------
Ha ha ha ...
Here also there is such question:
1. In Russia, such products are prepared by natural fermentation ...
2. In America I did not see this ... I only saw "marinating" when vinegar is used ... But, this is a completely different process ...

=====================================
Besides...
This topic of natural fermentation, affects not only cabbage, but also many other interesting things - cucumbers, beets ....
-------------------------------------------------- -------------
Finally, it's especially interesting about mushrooms ...
- Some types of mushrooms - better for natural fermentation
- Other types of mushrooms - better for marinating with vinegar

Sounds good

Do Russian delis carry it?

This is not a "Russian delicacy," but ordinary Russian food

Sauerkraut is much like kimchi, it is just fermented cabbage.

 

[Likkmee]

kraut.....grow the biggest and toughest cabbage you can come up with and wait a week after harvest. DO NOT use a grater. Either shred with a knife or use a mandolin.....if you even know what that is ( not a musical instrument).Put it in an ice cream bucket and layer it one inch deep, salt with sea salt between each layer Punch the hell out of it with your fist ( or a handle on a rolling pin) .Put a plate in the bucket with something heave to squeeze it( I use a gallon of water). Cover with a towel and tie closed with string. In five days remove the towel / weight/plate and skim off the disgusting slime. Underneath is the kraut.Jar it in mason jars and fridge it. A non idiot will chop some onions, garlic, thyme, basil, parsley and stuff and tune it up in a skillet before serving. A can boy will eat it as is.Probably 90% Up There
