Hi I'm chef Rainer Wickel and I here today with ExpertVillage.com. Well, we're onto our
next step. We've already drained all the liquid out of the sauerkraut. We've diced up our
apples and now we're ready to cook it in wine. So, the first thing we need to do is, as you
can see, our sauerkraut is already drained. We got most of the liquid out of there. And
this is really good because that way we get that sour taste completely out of it. Now
go ahead and grab your pot. What you're going to do is just go ahead and put the sauerkraut
in there. Then get a spoon and go ahead and spread it out. We're going to take about 1/2
a bottle of white wine and that's what we're going to cook it in. It's going to give it
a really, really nice flavor. So go ahead and pour that in there. Wwhat you want to
do is have enough wine in there so it'll just cover up the top of the sauerkraut. So go
ahead and stir it up. Now it's time to put the apples in there. Go ahead and grab your
apples and put it into the mixture. What you want to do is you just want to stir it up.
Make sure to mix it up well. The key to this is you want to come along and reduce this
but the main factor on this is that you want to make sure that the sauerkraut is soft and
not crispy. So that's pretty much the point to where you need to cook this mixture together.
That's how we cook our sauerkraut mixture in wine to get ready to make our sauerkraut
casserole.
