Polska Kielbasa and Sauerkraut #A-Spice-A-Day #10

Below is the Polska kielbasa that we had  on New Year's. Eating pork and Sauerkraut (fermented cabbage) on New Year is a German tradition which they believe  will bring good fortune if eaten on the first meal of the year.  They believe that the meat represent luck while the  greens represents money.  You can also  substitute it with other kind of meat and greens like turnips.  You can check from this page what else I have been looking into online while searching for some recipes.

Oh la la sis! I honestly haven't tasted sauerkraut yet. We've seen a lot of that in Munich. Got so curious but never actually bought. I got scared that we might not like the taste.

This looks so yummy. And I've had some French Onion soup and German Franks before, and I'm sure this dish tastes a bit similar!!!

I used to make kielbasa minus the Sauerkraut a lot. I got the simple recipe from my BIL. The kielbasa is added to sauteed tomatoes (almost liquified), onion, seasoned with cubito and garnished with cilantro. Served with piping white rice, it's awesome! In my husbands family, Sauerkraut is used to garnish frankfurters/hotdogs.

Those were the days. I haven't had them in years. Nakaka-miss.
