SAUERKRAUT Brine Salad Dressing

SAVOR YOUR SAUERKRAUT BRINE! A tasty dressing to use atop salad greens, spinach, grain bowls, vegetables, or even a sandwich/wrap.

Leftover Sauerkraut Brine from your Favorite Kres Kraut Variety

Salt fermentation generates a natural brine which is extracted cabbage, fruit and vegetables juices. This brine is key to a successful fermentation because it helps to create an anaerobic environment allowing the good microbiology to grow and thrive. Because brine is integral to active sauerkraut fermentation, it is loaded with GUT-LOVING MICROBES and FLAVOR.

Don’t let your left-over brine go to waste! Instead, use as a base to make a flavorful salad dressing and enjoy even more fermented goodness!
