Sauerkraut with Gin and Caraway

This aromatic sauerkraut with gin and caraway is a sophisticated twist on a classic fermented staple. The botanical notes of a traditional London dry gin pair beautifully with the earthy, anise-like flavour of caraway seeds, transforming a simple jar of sauerkraut into a gourmet accompaniment. By gently simmering the ingredients, the sharpness of the cabbage is mellowed, resulting in a complex and fragrant side dish that remains pleasantly crunchy.

Naturally dairy-free and gluten-free, this versatile recipe is an excellent addition to a festive spread or a weekend roast. It works particularly well when served alongside grilled sausages, roast pork, or even as a tangy topping for a vegetarian nut roast. The addition of a little butter at the end provides a silky finish that balances the acidity perfectly.

Ingredients for Sauerkraut with Gin and Caraway

  • 450g jar sauerkraut, drained

  • 350ml London dry gin (such as Gordon's, Beefeater, Tanqueray, or Plymouth)

  • 1 teaspoon caraway seeds

  • 60g (1/2 stick) chilled unsalted butter, diced

Combine sauerkraut, gin, and caraway seeds in heavy large saucepan. Bring to simmer over medium heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer gently, uncovered, until gin is reduced by slightly more than half, stirring occasionally (sauerkraut will still be crunchy and gin and caraway flavours will be absorbed), about 30 minutes. Add butter and stir until melted. Serve warm.
