Tips:
- Use a good quality sauerkraut. Freshly made sauerkraut is best, but you can also use store-bought sauerkraut. If using store-bought sauerkraut, rinse it well before using.
- Add other vegetables to the sauerkraut. Common additions include carrots, celery, onions, and apples. You can also add meat, such as sausage or bacon.
- Season the sauerkraut to your taste. Common seasonings include salt, pepper, caraway seeds, and juniper berries.
- Cook the sauerkraut on low pressure for 30-45 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld and the sauerkraut to become tender.
- Serve the sauerkraut hot with mashed potatoes, dumplings, or bread.
