Description

Sauerkraut is one of the most iconic, popular and distinctive accompaniments in German cuisine. Made by finely cutting raw cabbage and fermenting by various lactic acid bacteria, sauerkraut has a distinctly sour flavour which compliments sausages, schnitzels and other meaty German staple foods like no other. Bring a bit of Germany into your home with a jar of Hainich Sauerkraut from The Sausage Man. Our sauerkraut is ready to serve straight from the jar, but it can be heated before serving as well.

Fermentation has a long history in cuisine from the Far East to Europe, with the practice thought to have been brought to the containment by the Tartars. Literally translated as ‘sour cabbage’, the practice of fermenting cabbage to make sauerkraut became popular in Germany during the 16th century – and the process remains largely the same today!

A jar of Hainich Sauerkraut is perfect for the table when firing up a barbeque in the summer, used on sandwiches with thick slices of ham or sausages – or on a hot dog. If you love German food, buy a jar of sauerkraut for the complete range of savoury and sour flavours.

    This pairs very nicely with the red cabbage next to a Sausageman pork schnitzel.

    Great sauerkraut and at an amazing price to boot! Have tried with both the beef and chilli dogs – both work excellently!

    For me personally I had hoped for it to be exactly like what I would have from a takeaway in Germany and although it wasnt i still enjoyed it. My partner has literally ate a whole jar ? so its definitely a thumbs up from him and no doubt it will be ordered again.

    I read somewhere that Kanye loves this stuff and actually inspired him to write many songs on his album the collage dropout. apparently he eats it on lightly buttered sandwiches cut into triangles.
    As for me, i am not a fan of them – but decided to purchase to give the product a chance. real red dog will not be buying it again.
