Sauerkraut for a dinner party — went down extremely well

I made Sauerkraut for eight guests who had varying familiarity with the cuisine. Every single person asked for the recipe. The tangy from fermentation profile was the main talking point — no one had quite experienced sauerkraut used that way before.

German bread culture is extraordinarily diverse with over 300 officially registered varieties. I explained the a winter Christmas market context as I served it which helped people appreciate it fully. Radler shandy was what I offered alongside and it worked perfectly. Excellent dinner party dish — impressive without being inaccessible.
