Sauerkraut

Some people call is fermented sauerkraut, but that is redundant. By definition, sauerkraut is fermented.
Cabbage releases it’s on liquid, which creates the brine, so you don’t even need to add water.
It is crunchy, slightly sour, but still fresh and totally a veggie, so it makes for the perfect condiment. Serve it on hot dogs, simmer bratwurst, top it on burgers or even French Fries and tater tots.
