I am going to present to you a recipe for simmered sauerkraut followed by a recipe for the entire meal tomorrow, lets get started with this tasteful meal!

Simmered Sauerkraut

Start to finish: 3 hours (5 minutes active)

Servings: 12

• 3 pounds of sauerkraut, drained
• 3 1/2 cups chicken broth
• 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
• 1 teaspoon juniper berries
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Simmering the sauerkraut for several hours makes it melt-in-your-mouth tender. Juniper berries give the dish a distinctive flavor, but if you can’t find them just omit them from the recipe.

In a medium saucepan with a lid, combine the sauerkraut, chicken broth, onion, juniper berries and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce to low. Cover and simmer 2 to 3 hours.

Serve with roasted fresh ham (recipe for roasted fresh ham tomorrow). ENJOY!
