Sauerkraut Salad with Cucumbers in a Brine

This salad is perfect to make in any season but especially in the winter time when all the garden fresh vegetables are out of season. A combination of sauerkraut, cucumbers in a brine and a fresh sweet onion make this salad crunchy and a little sour but not overwhelming sour. A touch of black pepper and a drizzle of olive oil is all you need to make it complete. It can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge for up to a week or even longer if it lasts 🙂

Ingredients:

.8Lbs Sauerkraut (preferably with carrots)

6-7 small Pickles (Cucumbers in a brine)

1/2 medium Sweet Onion

1/2tsp Black Pepper

1/4cup of Olive Oil

Instructions:

  1. Roughly chop the sauerkraut cabbage into smaller pieces if yours is too chunky (if you like the size, skip this step)
  2. Cut the pickles into circles or half circles (your preference)
  3. Chop the sweet onion.

4. Add everything into a deep bowl, season with 1/2tsp of black pepper and 1/4cup of Olive oil (or any oil) and mix until well combined.

ENJOY!

      Yes, however not all seem to taste that great, try to get it from a European store if you have one locally, they may have some that are closer to homemade
