Sauerkraut Sunday: The Sweet Edition

Posted by Burgher Jon
/ August 22, 2010 / Leave a comment

Sauerkraut is a versatile food; it tops off hot dogs well, It’s also great served alongside sausages, you can even use it in some recipes like pierogis.  Using it in cake though?  That’s what the recipe above suggests (here is the full recipe).  It even has Sauerkraut icing on it.  It’s too bad my birthday is still 10 months away.

Now on to the real purpose of Sauerkraut Sundays… As I go through the week, I use Twitter to send out little updates and links.  I realize that I do this quite a bit and that not all of you use Twitter, so with that in mind I’d like to take Sunday to do sort of a week in review.  I’ve selected the most useful of my tweets from the last week and placed them in to the categories that I use in this blog.
