Well, we tried it last night. Had a trial run with 'American Smoked' hot
dogs.
The 'kraut packet I bought originates in Holland, and the instructions
were to "add a cup of broth, or water, and cook for 20mins".
So I did. Tried a bit of the stuff straight out of the packet, (as you
do!!) and wondered how the hell it was going to get any better in the
taste department!!
But it did. It ended up actually tasting a little sweet on the HD's, but
the SO said it was OK, and went back for a second helping. Still have a
heap left over, so will have to try it with mash etc.
