For those in the former category, this post will serve as a fun adventure in variations on an old favorite. For those in the latter category, I venture to suggest you just haven’t met the right kind of sauerkraut recipe.

When I first started making this gut friendly and tasty delight, basic is what I started out with. After all, I was new to lacto-fermentation and I wanted to make sure my concoctions didn’t taste “off”. After gaining some confidence however, I quickly ventured off to other flavors and add-ins. It keeps it interesting! I am one that loves sauerkraut in all of its forms, with the exception of the bland and processed types found in the grocery store.
