Serving Suggestions – for this Fermented Sauerkraut

A must-have for barbecues to go with those snags, steaks and beer! Fantastic with guacamole, fresh salsa and blue corn chips. There are so many ways to enjoy this smokey Kraut. Heap on bruschetta with rocket pesto & gooey poached egg.  Try it on the side of chilli con carne & rice or in a grilled portobello & peach burger.  Try it drizzled with pumpkin seed oil.  You could add it to mayonnaise to make an aioli, wrap up in a char-grilled lamb & tzatziki souvlaki … oh yes, you can finally enjoy the taste of garlic without the fear of garlic breath!

How to store Gutsy Kraut

Keep your Gutsy fermented sauerkraut refrigerated before opening if possible.  But if you can’t keep your kraut in the fridge for a while, it’s not a big deal.  Fermentation is a preserving process so Gutsy kraut will keep for weeks out of the fridge.  If you keep your kraut out of the fridge it will keep fermenting. The only problem is that carbon dioxide is a by-product of fermentation.  So if keep your Kraut out of the fridge for too long, you may be sprayed with kraut juice first time you open it.  It’s not an unhealthy, just messy.

Once opened Gutsy Kraut is best kept in the fridge.  The only reason for this is to inhibit the growth of mould.

A Note on Shipping Living, Raw, Probiotic, Smoked Garlic Fermented Sauerkraut

Our Gutsy Fermentery is based in Brisbane, QLD.  If you buy fermented sauerkraut online, we’ll ship it directly to your door anywhere in Australia.  When we ship your fermented sauerkraut we pack it into a thermal box with ice packs.  This keeps the kraut cool for a few days depending on the outside temperature.

The thing is that our Australian Summers get pretty hot, and if your package is traveling a long way your sauerkraut will eventually warm up.  As per the storage instructions above, it doesn’t matter if your fermented sauerkraut warms up, it’s actually a good thing (as far as probiotics go).  Just beware, if you’re ordering in the middle of summer, and you live far away from Brisbane (Tas or WA) your fermented veggies might be a little fizzy when you first take off the lid.  If this is the case, refrigerate the jar for a couple of hours before you open is.  Hold it over a bowl the first time you open it and drink any juices that you catch!

Buy Gutsy Ferments Sauerkraut.  Australian made, organic and unpasteurised so it’s highly probiotic.  All our kraut is wildly fermented in oak barrels and jarred in glass.  We ferment for a minimum of 4 weeks.

Don’t like cabbage sauerkraut?  Try our non-cabbage fermented  Carrot “kraut” instead.
