Question 3

What does "pasteurized" mean?

Accepted Answer

To turn white cabbage into sauerkraut, it must be fermented. This is done with the help of lactic acid bacteria. Subsequent pasteurization makes the product last even longer. In this process, microorganisms and germs are killed by brief heating at a temperature of at least 60 °C. This process is called pasteurization.

Question 4

How is the sauerkraut made?

Accepted Answer

On our producer's farm, white cabbage from our own field has been processed into sauerkraut under the best growing conditions for 65 years. The freshly harvested white cabbage is removed from the outer leaves and with the help of a machine the woody part of the stalk is drilled out. Each individual head is then inspected by hand. The cabbage is then cut by machine and 1% salt is added. Salt is important for the consistency of the sauerkraut and provides a certain flavor component. The cut white cabbage is placed in fermentation vats and pressurized. Now the natural fermentation process begins: During this process, the sugar found in the white cabbage (approx. 4%) is fermented by lactic acid bacteria into lactic acid. This is responsible for the typical pleasant sour taste. This is how sauerkraut, a shelf-stable food, is produced without the addition of preservatives.

Question 5

Is sauerkraut healthy?

Accepted Answer

Healthy is first and foremost a balanced, needs-based diet. But what we can assure you: The 500 g bag contains only white cabbage and a pinch of rock salt.

Question 7

Is the organic sauerkraut suitable for weight loss?

Accepted Answer

To lose weight, you don't have to go on a sauerkraut diet - what matters is a calorie deficit. Our pasteurized sauerkraut has only 26 kcal per 100 g.

Question 8

How long to cook sauerkraut and for what recipe can I use it?

Accepted Answer

You can eat our pasteurized sauerkraut without cooking and enjoy it, for example, in crisp salads or on your sandwich. Preparing sauerkraut is not difficult: As a classic side dish for various dishes, you can steam it in water or broth and round it off with spices. For example, bay leaves, juniper berries, savory and some pepper are suitable. If the cabbage tastes too sour, you can add pineapple, apple or sugar for sweetness. Of course, you can not only make "sauerkraut with cured pork", but also use the vegetable for quiche, lasagna, casserole, soup, curry, goulash or even on pizza. Also vegetarian/vegan prepared to a tasty potato pan or to vegetable meatballs, the mildly sour all-rounder tastes great.
