Sauerkraut
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
Sauerkraut (English: pronounced /ˈsaʊ̯ɻˌkɻaʊ̯t/, German: [ˈzaʊ.ɐˌkʁaʊt] (help·info), Yiddish: IPA: [ˈzɔi̯.əʀˌkʀɔi̯t]) is finely shredded cabbage that has been fermented by various lactic acid bacteria, including Leuconostoc, Lactobacillus, and Pediococcus.[1][2] It has a long shelf-life, and a distinctive sour flavor, both of which result from the lactic acid that forms when the bacteria ferment the sugars in the cabbage.
one of the finest forms of cabbage ever created IMHO

Kimchi has a reputation of being a healthy food. The US magazine Health named kimchi in its list of top five "World's Healthiest Foods" for being rich in vitamins, aiding digestion, and even possibly retarding cancer growth.[14] However, some research focused on high-sodium dietary dependence has found overconsumption of kimchi and soybean paste ( hangul: 된장 similar to miso ) to be a risk factor in gastric cancer (most likely due to nitrates and salt) while unfermented alliums and unfermented seafood were found to be protective factors.[15] One oncological study found one type of kimchi to be a protective factor against gastric cancer while two other types of such high-sodium kimchi as dongchimi (hangul: 동치미) were risk factors.[16]

now, i am by no means a health nut, not at all actually, but that does sound like it has many benefits as well. i've never tried this dish before. seems like it would go well with many asian dishes. one day i will eat cabbage from all parts of the world |
