Grandma's Kraut Nipfla

"This is basically sauerkraut and noodles, but it's oh so fantastic... Compete and total comfort food. Not sure how close my measurements are as Grandma cooking is measured in handfuls and pinches... You can put more or less sauerkraut depending on how much you like it! By the way, the noodles cook pretty fast, so don't walk away!"

directions

  • Cook the bacon until crispy and drain on paper towel. If you like, save a bit of the bacon drippings for later.
  • Drain sauerkraut and rinse. Put in saucepan. Add water just to cover and boil slowly for about a half an hour. Drain. Add cooked bacon which has been cut in pieces. For extra flavour add some bacon drippings as well!
  • Meanwhile, make the noodles. Put a pot of salted water on the stove to boil. Combine dry ingredients; add water. Mix thoroughly.
  • Turn onto floured surface and knead. Can roll dough with hands into long ropes. Cut into small strips. Drop into boiling salted water until the noodles float to the top. Drain and toss with a bit of butter or oil to keep them from sticking to each other.
  • Combine noodles and sauerkraut mixture and heat through. If you like, brown the bread cubes in the butter to make homemade croutons and add to the mixture!

<p>Picture taken just for Zaar - mmmm milkshake...</p> <p>I'm a brand new single mommy to my tiny perfect human, so thank you to everyone who takes the time to make and review my recipes - I try to send a zmail to each of you, but baby girl has a different idea.</p> <p>I'm a good ol' prairie girl from Canada with one side of the family being Ukrainian/Slovakian and the other side is German/Russian. In other words, when we cook we take carbs, cover them in more carbs, fry'em and serve it smothered in onions and cream.&nbsp;<br />No pro chefs in my family, just grandmas and aunts and cousins and a mom that had me pinching perogies and stuffing strudel before I could form a complete sentence. <br />The most dreaded / laughed at phrase I say is, So last night, I invented this thing for supper... - I would probably publish more recipes if I actually remembered everything I put in or had an idea of how much I added!!</p>
