INSTRUCTIONS
STOCK
Drain the sauerkraut and soak in cold water for 15 to 20 minutes.
Taking it by small handfuls, squeeze out as much water as you can.
Pick it apart to separate the strands.
Remove the rind and slice the bacon into 1/2 inch cubes about 2 inches
long. Simmer it in 1 quart of water for 10 minutes and drain.
Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
Cook bacon, carrots, and onions in butter slowly in the covered
casserole for 10 minutes without browning. Stir in the sauerkraut and
when itis well covered with the fat and vegetables, cover and cook
slowly for 10 minutes more.
Bury the herbs and spices in the saurkraut. Pour in the wine, and
enough stock to just cover the sauerkraut. Season lightly with salt
and pepper. Bring to a simmer on top of the stove. Lay a buttered
round of wax paper on top of sauerkraut. Cover and set in the middle
of preheated oven. Simmer slowly for 3 1/2 hours.
Brown assorted meats in skillet. Bury them in the casserole while the
sauerkraut is still braising.
Continue to simmer in oven for another 1 1/2hours. (5 hours total)
