Weinkraut
( Sauerkraut With Wine And Grapes )
Ingredients
2 x 1lb cans of sauerkraut
¾ pint dry white wine
¾ oz bacon fat
½ lb seedless green grapes
Details
Serves: 6
Method
Drain the sauerkraut. Pour the wine into a wide, shallow, stainless-steel or enamelled saucepan and reduce the wine to half volume by boiling over a high heat. Heat the bacon fat over a moderate heat in a heavy, medium-sized casserole or saucepan.
Add the sauerkraut and cook for several minutes, separating the strands with a fork. Pour in the wine and bring it to the boil. Then reduce the heat to its lowest point, cover the casserole, and simmer for about 10 minutes, until the sauerkraut has absorbed most of the wine. Stir in the grapes, cover the casserole again, and simmer for about 5 minutes more to heat the contents through. Serve at once from a heated dish or serving bowl.
