This sauerkraut recipe has to be the best-tasting sauerkraut I’ve ever had. Traditionally, my family serves pork and sauerkraut every New Year’s Day for luck in the coming year. I love cabbage in general and like most sauerkraut recipes, but they can be pretty sour depending on how they’re prepared. Sadly I don’t remember who gave me this recipe and who deserves the credit since it was pulled from a collection of handwritten recipes I’ve kept for years. I made it as a side dish for New Year’s Day dinner, and it was a complete hit! This is certainly not your typical sour sauerkraut recipe.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon bacon drippings
- 1 cup finely chopped onion
- 2 (16 ounce) packages sauerkraut, undrained
- ½ cup chicken stock
- ½ cup cooking sherry
- 1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon caraway seeds
Directions
Step 1
Heat bacon drippings in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir onion in hot bacon drippings until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
Step 2
Place sauerkraut with juice into a large bowl and cover with water. Use your hands to squeeze out as much water and juice as possible. Add squeezed sauerkraut to onion in the skillet.
Step 3
Stir chicken stock, sherry, brown sugar, and caraway seeds into sauerkraut mixture. Reduce heat to low; simmer, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid has evaporated, 30 to 40 minutes.
