       Some people do not like sauerkraut.   With this way you can make sauerkraut so that they may like it.

 

   2 tablespoon flour.

   1 beaten egg.

   ¼ to 1/3 cup cheese (Parmesan is best).

   1/3 to ½ cup bread crumbs.

   8 to 10 ounces sauerkraut.

   1 pkg tooth picks.

 

       Rinsed and drain the sauerkraut.   When this is done, mix all the food ingredients together until well blended.

 

       Form into ¾ to 1 inch balls and cover with plastic wrap and microwave for 3 minutes or until the balls are firm.    Some microwave may cook faster and the balls can be done in 2 minutes.

 

       You can also cook on the stove with some cooking oil and quickly brown the balls before serving.

 

       Some people will add 1/3 to ½ pound of beef, or corned beef, or sausage into the mix above.

 

       Serve them by sticking a tooth pick into each and have them on a plate.   You now have a good appetizer.

 

       Good luck.
