Grandma's Secret Tips!

Grandma's Secret Tips!

Grandma's family made their own sauerkraut, which they fermented in a brine rather than in vinegar. Grandma was accustomed to the mild taste, and so she usually used the refrigerated type of sauerkraut, which is sometimes packed in a glass jar and sometimes in a plastic bulk package. When she had to use canned sauerkraut, she drained and rinsed it before adding it to the potatoes and beef.
