Our Family-Owned History
The "old world" flavor and quality of Mackenthun's homemade sausages began at the turn of the century in a little butcher shop in Plato, Minnesota, owned by August Mackenthun. In 1917, August's son Arthur imported a sausage maker from Germany and opened his own meat market in Waconia which soon built a reputation for the finest quality meats and most delicious sausage anyo

ne ever tasted. In the 1940s and '50s, Arthur's son Marvin added a full line of groceries to their market. Today, Kim and Laurie Mackenthun and their family (4th and 5th generation) operate a full-service supermarket with all the convenience of the big city, but inside the doors, you'll still find the old-fashion pride of a small-town butcher shop. Their award-winning meat department and homemade sausage have won national acclaim and they are dedicated to making every batch of delicious homemade sausage the same as it was in the early 1900s. is to provide customers with an exceptional food experience, while continuing to be involved in our communities and dedicated to the fair and honest treatment of our employees and suppliers. We respect and support each other and work together to meet the needs of our customers and their families with a personal touch. The Mackenthun’s food experience is a fun, exciting, customer-friendly event developed, organized, and implemented by employees to promote and sell “Mackenthun’s Made and Select” unique products and services.

Creamy Cucumber Salad

Simple, refreshing and a great example of nutrients working together!

Dill contains limonene, a flavonoid that supports digestion and may help ease heartburn symptoms.

Cucumbers are high in water, making them naturally hydrating! They also provide great micronutrients such as vitamin K, vitamin C, magnesium, and potassium.

The fat in sour cream helps your body absorb fat-soluble vitamins like A, D, E, and K, making the nutrients in this dish work together and be more usable in your body!

Here is the recipe:
Ingredients:
1 English cucumber, thinly sliced
1 cup Kemps Sour Cream
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar (ACV)
2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped (plus extra for garnish)
Pinch of salt
Pinch of black pepper

Thinly slice the cucumber and place it in a bowl. Sprinkle lightly with salt and let it sit for 5-10 minutes. This helps draw out excess moisture.

After resting, gently squeeze the cucumber slices (by hand or using a clean towel) to remove excess water.

In a small bowl, add the drained cucumber slices, sour cream, apple cider vinegar, chopped dill, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir until well combined and evenly coated.

Transfer to a serving dish, sprinkle with extra fresh dill, and enjoy immediately or chill briefly before serving!
