But I do make pork roast in the crock pot w/kraut & potatoes. I LOVE Frank's kraut! Haven't found it here though so I buy Kuner's. When I was a young girl my best friend's mom made kraut & stored it along the floor of the garage between the studs. Sometimes we'd sneak into the garage & eat it! I used to fix country sausage rings with kraut too, but we don't eat that anymore.Nadinenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-678264306526442157.post-68992126783051708532014-09-13T10:39:11.497-05:002014-09-13T10:39:11.497-05:00Yum!

My Mother is German and did not even speak English when she started grade school years ago so I have eaten a lot of the real thing too!

We always put sliced onion, grated or sliced apple and a good dash of white wine with the Sauerkraut, then place 1 large bay leaf and a few black peppercorns with it before heating. I also like to cook some belly pork slices (no bones to waste money on) on top of the Sauerkraut, under a closed lid. It tastes wonderful together and is the real, authentic way to have this dish. I should know, as I am native German.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09114653674812242486noreply@blogger.com
