I’ve decided I’m simply not a sauerkraut kinda girl, so I won’t try cooking with it again. But It’s been educational, got me hauling out the slow cooker to start using again, given me some ideas to explore and a basic recipe to build off of.
I’m also planning to do split pea soup now – instead of a ham bone, chop the uncooked bacon I have left and toss that in, along with the peas, onion, carrot, maybe some garlic, and chicken broth. Hmmmm… There’s also a bag of lentils in the cabinet. Maybe try slow-cooking some of them in beef broth, with carrot, onion, garlic for sure and a few chopped slices of braunschweiger.
