Sauerkraut Au Gratin Recipes

SAUERKRAUT AU GRATIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
• In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour, salt, pepper, dry mustard and Worcestershire sauce. Slowly add the milk and cook, stirring constantly, until thickened. Stir in 1 cup cheese and the sauerkraut.
• Transfer to a 1 1/2-quart casserole. Mix the remaining 1/2 cup cheese with the bread crumbs and sprinkle over the top. Bake in the center of the oven about 30 minutes or until hot, bubbly and the topping is lightly browned.

ESCALLOPED APPLES AU GRATIN

Steps:

• Place the sauerkraut in a colander and rinse well under cold tap water. Squeeze dry.
• Toss together the apple slices, flour and spices. Drizzle in the honey and mix well.
• Saute the onions in the butter until clear and soft (5- 8 mnutes). Add the dry mustard and the sauerkraut, and cook another few minutes over medium heat. Remove from heat.
• Take half the grated cheese, and combine it with the breadcrumbs and chopped nuts. Leave the other half of the grated cheese to stand alone.
• In your buttered deep-dish casserole, make the following pattern of layers: 1st a layer consisting of half the apple mixture, next, half the onion-sauerkraut mixture; 3rd the plain grated cheese, 4th the remaining apples, followed by the remaining/sauerkraut mix, and FINALLY, the nut-crumb-cheese topping!
• Cover and bake for 20 minutes and uncover and bake 20 minutes more.
