Sauerkraut: from regular white cabbage to traditional repast

To make sauerkraut, white cabbage must be preserved by lactic acid fermentation. This technique of preserving vegetables was already used in ancient Greece and the Roman Empire. You may also know the Korean sauerkraut variant: kimchi. The soured Chinese cabbage originated as early as the 7th century. Before the method of preservation was established, sauerkraut was eaten mainly in winter in Germany, Poland and the Netherlands. In the USA, "the Germans" were even stereotypically referred to as "Krauts" during the First World War. But now let's get into the details of how it is made: Fresh cabbage is finely chopped and put into a container (pot) with salt. The salt extracts liquid from the vegetable and preserves the natural juices. Then the white cabbage is processed with a "cabbage masher" and lactic acid bacteria are added. Our sauerkraut is also pasteurised. This means that it is additionally heated. Heating kills the bacteria and makes the sour treat last even longer.

Preparing KoRo's organic sauerkraut

What is great about our fermented white cabbage: you can eat it directly out of the bag and integrate it wonderfully into your salads. You can also prepare it "grandma style" with secret family spices, a few apple pieces and bacon. Vegetarians and vegans can do a lot with sauerkraut, from stews, quiches and curries to vegan pasta or lasagna.

You can, of course, sweeten the vegetables to your liking and refine them with some spices. Whether raw or cooked, the fermented cabbage tastes delicious in soups, stews and salads, but also as a side dish for savoury meals.

Questions & answers: Organic sauerkraut 500g

Search FAQ section:

Can I eat sauerkraut during pregnancy?

In general, we see no problem in consuming sauerkraut in moderation during pregnancy. We ask you to contact your doctor if you are unsure.

How many calories are in pasteurized sauerkraut?

100 g sauerkraut provide 20 kcal. All information about the nutritional values and ingredients can be found as usual next to or below the product description in our online store.

What does "pasteurized" mean?

To turn white cabbage into sauerkraut, it must be fermented. This is done with the help of lactic acid bacteria. Subsequent pasteurization makes the product last even longer. In this process, microorganisms and germs are killed by brief heating at a temperature of at least 60 °C. This process is called pasteurization.

How is the sauerkraut made?

On our producer's farm, white cabbage from our own field has been processed into sauerkraut under the best growing conditions for 65 years. The freshly harvested white cabbage is removed from the outer leaves and with the help of a machine the woody part of the stalk is drilled out. Each individual head is then inspected by hand. The cabbage is then cut by machine and 1.4% salt is added. Salt is important for the consistency of the sauerkraut and provides a certain flavor component. The cut white cabbage is placed in fermentation vats and pressurized. Now the natural fermentation process begins: During this process, the sugar found in the white cabbage (approx. 4%) is fermented by lactic acid bacteria into lactic acid. This is responsible for the typical pleasant sour taste. This is how sauerkraut, a shelf-stable food, is produced without the addition of preservatives.

Is sauerkraut healthy?

Healthy is first and foremost a balanced, needs-based diet. But what we can assure you: The 500 g bag contains only white cabbage and a pinch of rock salt.

Can I eat KoRo organic sauerkraut raw?

Yes, you can also enjoy our firm-to-the-bite sauerkraut raw. For example, how about as an ingredient in a raw food or vegan sausage salad?

Is the organic sauerkraut suitable for weight loss?

To lose weight, you don't have to go on a sauerkraut diet - what matters is a calorie deficit. Our pasteurized sauerkraut has only 20 kcal per 100 g.

How long to cook sauerkraut and for what recipe can I use it?

You can eat our pasteurized sauerkraut without cooking and enjoy it, for example, in crisp salads or on your sandwich. Preparing sauerkraut is not difficult: As a classic side dish for various dishes, you can steam it in water or broth and round it off with spices. For example, bay leaves, juniper berries, savory and some pepper are suitable. If the cabbage tastes too sour, you can add pineapple, apple or sugar for sweetness. Of course, you can not only make "sauerkraut with cured pork", but also use the vegetable for quiche, lasagna, casserole, soup, curry, goulash or even on pizza. Also vegetarian/vegan prepared to a tasty potato pan or to vegetable meatballs, the mildly sour all-rounder tastes great.
