  Subject: CS>Sauerkraut


  We eat sauerkraut by the case.  My husband is full-blooded Czech, so it's the 
staple menu, like meat and potatoes.  
   
  The FRESH sauerkraut is the most beneficial, since it has not been heated, 
but I think the canned stuff is plenty tasty, if not as healthful.
   
  His mother used to make it in large stoneware crocks.  If anyone is 
interested in the recipe, email me, and I will tell you how we do it in Czech 
country (rural southcentral MN, around New Prague, Veseli, and other old Czech 
settlements).
