Classic recipes are good, but over time they get boring, so it's time to try something new.
It is enough to slightly change the sauerkraut recipe to reveal this dish in a completely unusual taste.
Here everything depends on the cook's imagination and willingness to experiment with unusual ingredients. Some products are in the kitchen, but for some reason housewives do not dare to add them to this treat.
Many amateur cooks have prepared cabbage with cranberries, apples, and lingonberries. However, there are other ingredients that will make the dish even more delicious and piquant.
So, for one head of cabbage you can take juniper berries, a pinch of caraway, fennel or coriander seeds.
Garlic, ginger, and jalapeno peppers will add spiciness and astringency to sauerkraut.
If you want sweetness instead of piquancy, you should add pumpkin, beetroot or grapes to the dish. But it is important to remember that the amount of these ingredients should not exceed 5% of the total weight of the dish.
