How does sauerkraut taste? I've never eaten it before. I might try it in the future, that's why I'm asking.
Incredible taste. unbelievable.

Ingredients for Sauerkraut Recipe
1 piece cabbage (oversized)
3 tablespoon rock salt
2 piece medium carrot
5 external garlic
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
1 water glass grape vinegar
2 liter drinking water
1 teaspoonlemon salt

Remove the root part in the middle of the hard and thick-leaved pickled cabbage, whose outer leaves have been removed and washed in plenty of water, with the help of a sharp knife. Divide the cabbage into at least four equal parts and chop it into desired sizes. Keep in mind that the smaller you reduce the hard leaves, especially towards the root, the quicker the pickle will take.

Add rock salt to the cabbage and rub it with the salt.

Add the rubbed cabbage to a clean and large jar.

Arrange peeled and coarsely chopped carrots in between and fill the jar with the addition of cabbage again.

After filling the jar, add granulated sugar, garlic and vinegar.

Fill the potable water to cover the cabbages.

Finally, add lemon salt, close the jar airtight and store it at room temperature in a place out of sunlight for 15 days. After opening, keep in the refrigerator.
 
What’s the first piece you’d take?

For dinner, I ate some meatloaf, baked beans, green beans and some dinner rolls.
That sounds really good.

I made a boatload of roasted veggie empanadas with a little Mexican 4 cheese blend in them for a work holiday potluck. I’m gonna stop by one of my favorite coffee shops and give a few to the owner before work.

I’ll be making a dessert as well - just vanilla cinnamon rolls. Other people are bringing churro cupcakes from scratch, meats, taco shells, salsa. Should be an enjoyable day breaking bread.

One thing I did purposely was cut back on the amount of added salt to my filling. I feel that did compromise flavor, but it gives them a kind of fresh, non processed taste.

Awesome man, I bet that tasted really good with enhanced flavor.

They’re pretty decent. It’s been a while since I’ve made anything like this, so I’m happy with the results.

The cinnamon rolls are done. They’re filled with a decaf coffee for flavor and some vanilla bean paste. It’s pretty intense.

I don’t like the vanilla paste... I wouldn’t even call it a paste.. it’s like a syrup. It leaked out of the filling, but it should still have the taste. Icing was just sugar and butter.

Maybe I can thicken the paste with something.. maybe flour?
 
I had a delicious 7.0% ABV West Coast IPA by the Weekend Project - absolutely lovely, but almost on the limit strength-wise.

I used to be a regular at the craft beer store where I ordered it, but haven't been for some time. I know the owner well though, and he was kind enough to say 'it's always great to see you!', which is pretty cool, especially when alot of places feel (and often are) quite unwelcoming to people on their own.

I wanted to make the point that I'd not leave it so long before coming back the next time, so I told him that I was planning to come to his shop for a few drinks after my Xmas dinner - by which I meant my work's Xmas dinner at the restaurant across the road in three week's time. However, he thought I meant my actual Xmas dinner on Christmas Day, and he looked a bit alarmed and said, 'Aw, I'm really sorry man, but we're closed on Christmas Day'; I laughed and explained that I meant my work Xmas dinner two weeks on Wednesday, but it turns out they're closed on Wednesdays now too 😅 It's a pity, because we always go for a loosener before our Xmas meal, and a couple of beers at this place would have been perfect (in fact that is one of the reasons we booked the restaurant nearby!).
