You know what I hated growing up? Muther-fricking sauerkraut. The funky taste, texture...ugh, PUKE.
It was later when my mom made some pork dish with sauerkraut that I started to like it. Mind you, it was the canned stuff...and pork bone things (gag), but it kind of grew on me.
I decided to try making my own using Sayward's awesomely-easy directions from Bonzai Aphrodite (love that site, she's so wise!)
You guys, it's so easy!! I will have my fingers crossed until I make reubens later this week that it's not totally screwed up.
Hooray for another food-venture with Vegan MoFo!
What foods do you dislike? Have you given them a second chance?

Sauerkraut is cabbage's ideal form! I recently made my first batch - it was awesome and so easy!
ReplyDeleteI got a recipe in a canning class I took but have been nervous to make it. Glad to hear it was so easy. Going to have to give it a try.
ReplyDeleteNeat! I just acquired a fermentation zine, Wild Fermentation, and sauerkraut is the first recipe!

how fun! I totally agree that it is so fun to learn to like new foods. I just recently started enjoying sauerkraut. Also - Sayward's site is totally rad. Good luck - I hope your little kraut baby comes out perfect!
