Instructions
- Fry the bacon in a pan over medium-low heat until it's crispy. Remove and drain half the fat; reserve the rest for another dish. Eat a piece of bacon because it's delicious. Chop the rest and set aside.
- Brown the onions in the bacon fat over medium-high heat. Stir them around as they cook so their moisture lifts up any browned bits in the pan.
- When the onions are nicely browned, 8 to 10 minutes, add the drained sauerkraut, the beer, marjoram and caraway. Bring it to a simmer and use a wooden spoon to scrape up any more browned bits in the pan. Let this cook until the liquid has almost boiled away, then stir in the applesauce.
- Taste it and add the vinegar if you want. Some freshly ground black pepper is a good addition, too.
Notes
- Drain but do not rinse the sauerkraut. You want its tartness and its saltiness in the overall dish.
