Random, I know.
But wanted to make bigos (a traditional Eastern European dish), and need this important ingredient...anyone came across sauerkraut while grocery shopping???
Thx! |

The Meil deli in Itaewon sells fresh sauerkraut, and you can also find jarred sauerkraut in the foreign food market.
Chef Meil's sauerkrat is very good, imo. |

Now Meili is quite expensive so if it doesn't have to be fresh made, check out the Deli sections of Shinsgae and Lotte for canned SK. Take a brand that has German on it  |

Also, it's really easy to make. I made sauerkraut my first few years here in Korea. There are lots of websites if you're interested. |

I buy mine from nicedeli.com. It is a nice site and they offer a variety of goods. The delivery service is great. |

Why not make your own? It's really really easy. All you have to do is wash and cut the cabbage, then sprinkle it with a little bit of salt. Then put it in some container and put pressure on it. I put the salted cabbage in a kimchi jar, then put a clean plastic plate resting on the cabbage, then put a 1kg weight on top. That's it. After a few days scoop some up and enjoy! |
