Elaine's Sauerkraut Soup image

I needed a fast and easy version of sauerkraut soup. I checked out a lot of sauerkraut soup recipes and decided to make my own recipe from ingredients that are easy to obtain and mostly from the pantry. If you want it soupier add more chicken stock.

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 small onion, chopped
3 slice bacon, cubed
4 oz pork tenderloin, cut in 1/2 inch cubes
2 carrots, cubed
14 oz potatoes, 1/2 inch cubes
12 oz (340 ml.) sauerkraut
2 tsp paprika
1/8 tsp nutmeg
12 oz water (use sauerkraut jar to measure)
3 bay leaves
2 tsp caraway seed (or to taste)
salt and pepper to taste if needed
2 tsp chicken base (better than bouillon)

Steps:

  • 1. Heat a large pot with a tablespoon of oil. Sweat the onions. Add chopped bacon and cubed pork. Stir fry for a couple of minutes to melt the bacon fat a bit.
  • 2. Add the carrots, potatoes, sauerkraut, water, chicken base and spices. Stir together and bring to a boil.
  • 3. Simmer for 30 minutes or until vegetables are cooked. Taste for seasoning. Add salt and pepper, if needed. (I didn't use more salt.)

I love the combination of flavors in this soup. The sourness of the sauerkraut, the sweetness of the apples, and the smokiness of the sausage are all perfectly balanced.
