Kitchen know-how

Tips for Schupfnudeln with sauerkraut

Drain well sauerkraut

Very wet sauerkraut would soften the browned scuff noodles. After simmering, reduce excess liquid openly or drain the herb briefly.

Roast separate bowls

Fry the scuff noodles in a wide pan all around golden brown, while the herb is stewed separately. Thus, crust and roasted flavors are formed before both come together.

Mix only at the end

Combine sauerkraut and scuff noodles only for the last minutes. Long common cooking dissipates the browned areas.

Variations

How to adapt this recipe

Leave out bacon and fry the onion in butter or oil golden yellow. Smoked paprika gives the sauerkraut a subtle smoky note if necessary.

Dice a sour apple and simmer with four pressed juniper berries in the herb. The fruity sweetness balances out strong acidity.

Fry in a large pan at medium to high heat and do not constantly move. Add the relatively dry sauerkraut only immediately before serving.
