Quick, easy and absolutely divine.
I love using my krauts and kimchis in cooking, they elevate all of my meals and it's super handy for impressing others. They change up your everyday favs, but is literally as simple as just adding it in e.g. with your instant gravy.
Crafty Pickle is your reliable ally when it comes to making meals to impress. You could have a couple of different gravies at the dinner table with different kraut variations; leaving your guests feeling like you've gone to all the effort, without needing to purchase multiple random items or add time to your cooking.
Have fun with this Reclaimed Red Kraut and onion gravy and why not try your own kraut and gravy combos. We'd love to know what you come with!
