DAR'S SUPER SAVORY SAUERKRAUT POTATO BAKE
This dish has some of the flavors that I miss from my childhood in Germany. It is comfort food with a capital 'C.' I like to pair it with my own pork schnitzel or with baked chicken for a hearty dinner. This dish also includes a recipe for a creamy sauce that I use both in pot pies and as a substitute for condensed soups in many recipes. 'Guten Appetit!'

Tips:
- Choose the Right Sausage: Select a high-quality summer sausage that is fully cooked and has a good flavor. Look for brands that use natural ingredients and avoid those with added fillers or preservatives.
- Slice the Sausage Thinly: Cutting the sausage into thin slices will help it cook evenly and absorb the flavors of the other ingredients.
- Use a Cast Iron Skillet: A cast iron skillet is ideal for cooking the sausage and potatoes because it retains heat well and creates a nice crispy crust.
- Don't Crowd the Pan: Make sure to leave enough space between the sausage slices and potatoes so that they can cook evenly and not steam.
- Season Generously: Don't be afraid to season the sausage and potatoes liberally with salt, pepper, and other spices. This will help enhance their flavor.
- Add the Sauerkraut Last: Stir in the sauerkraut towards the end of the cooking process to prevent it from becoming overly sour.
