Sauerkraut is the product of the lactic fermentation of white cabbages. This natural process is regulated only by the addition of kitchen-salt, and the result is a food rich in vitamins. Sauerkraut also strengthens the bacterial flora of the digestive system, thus helping to remove bacteria and pathological viruses.

Sauerkraut is excellent with Bratwurst, goulash or pork. It is also good at fighting constipation.

Sauerkraut is not made with vinegar and is not only consumed in Germany, but also in Poland, Switzerland, Austria and Italy. Sauerkraut is a stern and honest vegetable dish.
