Hey Lorraine,how's yer saurkraut expertise ?

[Jim West Pa]

I made a pot o' saurkraut with pork chops and turkey kolbasi and for some reason this batch is sour 'nough to curl yer teeth.
I was thinkin o' addin a bit o' apple butter to the mix and try and curb the sourness a bit.
What say ye on this matter ?

Did you rinse and squeeze the saurkraut before cooking it?

if too sour, squeeze the kraut again..( usually I don't have to do this). then proceed with whatever recipe you are preparing.

Usually I fry salt pork; I remove the salt pork bits and. sautee onions in the residue; then I add the kraut; add a bit of salt and pepper to taste if necessary; and then mix together ; finally add a tablespoon of olive oil and mix it in.

Hope this helps you .
