Do you like sauerkraut?

So I started making sauerkraut for the probiotic benefits. Its pretty good but I find it too salty to just eat plain by itself. So far Ive been using it to top beyond burgers with. (I'm mainly vegetarian.) Anyone have any other ideas on how I could eat it? If you like it with meat I'd still like to hear about it.

@Zaphod42 ive only tried kimchi once. i dont rememeber the flavor as i couldnt get past how slimy it was. is kimchi supposed to be slimy or did I just get some bad stuff. Im assuming it was how it is cause i got it at a nice restaurants buffet. but people love it so much i am wondering.

@Penny I’ve never had home made kimchi, some can’t say anything there, but it’s been wonderful at every restaurant I’ve had it at, as well as the different brands from different stores I’ve gotten it from. None of it has been slimy though, and I think you just had a bad batch as a first experience…an unfortunate thing really! It should be soft, like anything else pickled, but with a certain crispness. It should also be a little spicy with a slightly salty back taste. It’s also another wonderful thing for probiotics 🙂

@Zaphod42 I had a supervisor back in 2001 that used to bring it for lunch every day, needless to say he ate alone.
