Bavarian Raw Sauerkraut
Our Bavarian Raw Sauerkraut is distinctly different from store-bought, canned sauerkraut. While many food manufacturers can or jar their kraut using heat in order to extend shelf life, our raw sauerkraut is lacto-fermented and is alive with good bacteria and probiotics. Our Bavarian Raw Sauerkraut is fermented over weeks at room temperature, packaged with its own brine sol
ution, then refrigerated to preserve the vitamins, enzymes, and beneficial bacteria without any heat. The lactic acid creates beneficial intestinal flora, balances stomach pH both directions, and helps break down proteins. Our Bavarian Raw Sauerkraut is bio friendly, hand-made of cabbage grown locally along the Garden Route and produced without preservatives, additives or colourings.
