Homemade Sauerkraut, Fermented Cabbage, Hapukapsas is a very important and popular dish in Estonia during autumn winter time and mandatory food during Christmas time.
In ancient time, Hapukapsas and cranberries were only sources of C vitamin, during wintertime.
Sauerkraut is a fermented food and this is not the only a source of vitamin, but this is also a source of the probiotic bacterium and this is excellent for your health.
One wonderful salad recipe.

Naturally love both sauerkraut and beetroot but do not think I have put both together in salad form – love the use of honey, nuts and seeds . . . age-old favourites prepared in a modern manner . . .

Sauerkraut and beets together are not uncommon. In borscht, they are also together :)?
