165. SAUERKRAUT.
PROCURE two pounds of fresh imported sauerkraut, wash it thoroughly in several waters, and then drain it in a colander. Next, put it into a stewpan with one pound of parboiled streaky bacon, one pound of German sausage, two carrots, two onions, studded with two cloves each, and a garnished faggot of parsley; cover with a round of buttered paper, and moisten with a quart of stockpot toppings. Braize the sauerkraut for about three hours over a slow fire; and when done, drain it in a colander, remove the bacon and German sausage, throw away the carrot, onion, and faggot; then put the sauerkraut into a stewpan with a gravy-spoonful of Poivrade sauce, toss it over the fire, and use it to garnish the intended dish.
