👨🍳 Zubereitung
- 1
Cook the wide egg noodles according to package directions in salted boiling water until al dente. Drain and set aside.
💡 Profitipps: Reserve about 1/2 cup of the pasta water. - 2
In a large pan or Dutch oven, render the diced speck or bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the speck with a slotted spoon and set aside, leaving the rendered fat in the pan.
- 3
Add the butter or lard to the pan with the speck fat. Sauté the chopped onion until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
- 4
Add the minced garlic and caraway seeds to the pan and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- 5
Add the rinsed and drained sauerkraut to the pan. Stir well to combine with the onions and garlic. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, for about 20-25 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the sauerkraut to soften further.
💡 Profitipps: If the sauerkraut seems too dry, add a splash of water or vegetable broth. - 6
Add the cooked noodles to the sauerkraut mixture. Toss gently to combine. If the mixture seems dry, add a little of the reserved pasta water to create a light sauce.
💡 Profitipps: Don't overmix, as this can break the noodles. - 7
Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Stir in most of the crumbled sheep's cheese and half of the crispy speck.
💡 Profitipps: Taste and adjust seasoning before serving. - 8
Serve the Krautnudeln hot, garnished with the remaining crispy speck, crumbled sheep's cheese, and fresh chopped parsley.
💡 Profitipps
- ✓Using a good quality sauerkraut is key to the flavor.
- ✓If you can't find sheep's cheese, a firm, tangy feta can be a substitute, though the flavor will differ.
- ✓For a vegetarian version, omit the speck and sauté the onions in butter or oil, and consider adding some smoked paprika for depth.
