I love sauerkraut. I just never had it in a soup when I was growing up. Sauerkraut was something that was served as a side dish.
When I was asked a while ago for a recipe for sauerkraut soup, I thought it a bit strange. That is, until I did some research and looked through lots of German cookbooks. I found a great assortment of easy soup recipes and even a sauerkraut casserole.
I did some experimenting and this soup is the result. It always gets rave reviews when I serve it. To round out the meal, I serve a salad such as this lettuce salad with sour cream salad dressing and some fresh buns, or homemade artisan bread.
