Sauerkraut- German, Simple & Mild

Submitted by DR Gray

"A mild flavor. The potato thickens the sauerkraut and takes the edge off the sharp taste. Came off the Libby canned sauerkraut lable at least 20 years ago. Simple, easy to make and tastes awesome. For people who don't like the taste of strong canned sauerkraut. Goes great with hot dogs and brats."
