I don't know where that exact newspaper recipe I followed is now, but I just googled "sauerkraut chocolate cake" and found lots of stuff.<br />
<br />
I've also made my own sauerkraut.  Most recently with this recipe.<br />
<a href="http://www.sfgate.com/food/recipes/detail/?p=detail&amp;rid=17730&amp;sorig=qs" rel="nofollow">http://www.sfgate.com/food/recipes/detai&hellip;</a><br />
<br />
(It came out perfect the first time, the second and third times it seemed too salty, so I'm trying to get back to the right proportion of salt.)

      <![CDATA[I didn't think the implication was that the sauerkraut had gone bad, but simply that the smell which at first brought to mind a delicious snack had now come to seem terrible.  Hence the offer at the end for a ziploc of the leftovers.

      <![CDATA[My dear chum, the late Mary Norris (City Light's last Home Economist) and her husband used to love to make sauerkraut. They'd put up huge batches of it, and she said that it never failed that on the days they'd do it, which made the house stink royally, somebody would stop over unexpectedly. They finally put in an outdoor shelter with an electric stove to keep the smell out of the house. <br />
<br />
But she and Joe just loved their homemade sauerkraut. <br>

      <![CDATA[I just have to join the chorus here.  Our predecessors invented pickling/fermenting in order to keep vegetables for a long time without refrigeration (think kim chee, kosher dills, all those weird Japanese pickly things, etc.).  If your sauerkraut is not still good for next New Year, you are doing something wrong.<br />
Anyway, to get rid of it, try this:<br />
Brown a couple of thick pork chops in a skillet. When browned, smother with sauerkraut, cover and simmer for 40 minutes or so until done to your liking.<br />
Remove meat to platter, add sour cream and caraway seeds to saurkraut and pan juices.  Stir over heat to thicken, serve over porkchops.  Delicious!

      <![CDATA[Canned sauerkraut?  Gross.  That's your first problem.  Get Bubbie's next time.  You can find it at any halfway decent grocery store; I know for a fact Madison Market has it.  I'm sure it'll keep for quite a while in the fridge, although whenever I buy it, it gets consumed within a week (if not a few days).

      <![CDATA[Dear Erma,<br />
All sauerkraut, being a fermented form of cabbage, is old.  From wikipedia:<br />
"Fully cured sauerkraut keeps for several months in an airtight container stored at or below 15 °C (60 °F). Neither refrigeration nor pasteurization is required, although these treatments prolong storage life."<br />
<br />
So I recommend another delicious field roast link.<br />
<br />
