by Femi Cole
Bear Creek, Wis. � Wow your party guests� taste buds this holiday season by adding Sauerkraut to the festivities.
�Sauerkraut is definitely the food to eat now,� said Great Lakes Kraut Co. co-owner Ryan Downs. �Chefs at some of the nation�s best restaurants have added it to their menus. Sauerkraut-Stuffed Mushroom Caps, Mini Reuben Sandwiches, and Cream Cheese & Sauerkraut Spread will definitely impress guests at any holiday party.� Visit www.sauerkrautnews.com to find recipes for these and other appealing appetizers.
Sauerkraut � traditionally a staple of German cuisine � gained recent national exposure thanks to health studies spotlighting its cancer-preventing properties.
One such study, led by Michigan State University and University of New Mexico researcher Dorothy Pathak, observed that Polish women accustomed to a lifelong Sauerkraut-heavy diet were 74 percent less likely to be diagnosed with breast cancer than their American counterparts. The study was presented during the November 2005 American Association for Cancer Research�s �Annual Frontiers in Cancer Prevention Research� meeting.
A report by the Cincinnati Post�s Food Network highlighted the fact that people want more unique, easy-to-make, ethnic food combinations like Mexican-Chinese food or Celtic chutney.
�Sauerkraut lends itself very well to the demand for such inventive, tasty dishes,� Downs said. In addition, Sauerkraut�s versatility opens the door to a host of other entertaining ideas, he added.
�Make it a part of your holiday drinks,� Downs said. �Explore your adventurous side and use Sauerkraut juice to mix a great-tasting dirty martini or a Bloody Mary.�
