This is the meal where I discovered sauerkraut is not the condiment for me, and I love condiments!
This was my dinner last Sunday, and yes I know, that is a hella lot of gravy but I didn’t plate it and it’s rude to judge…just sayin… 😉
It is beef, with potatoes and veggies, as well as the gravy and sauerkraut. I decided to splurge on this dinner since my normal Sunday dinner is a sandwich, or maybe a bowl of soup, nothing as protein filled and tasty as this promised to be.
The meal was delicious, as I fully expected it to be lol Too much food for one person, but what I ate of it was yum!
Since the sauerkraut was there, and apparently it is a condiment used with beef, I figured why not give it a try? Uh yeah, bad plan there, it was um, well, kinda gross. No, that’s not fair, because I know some people really like it (you weirdos you! lol), it just wasn’t for me. I think part of it is that I liked the taste of the beef and didn’t find the sauerkraut complimentary to the beef, rather, it was over powering.
It’s like when people season the hell out of their vegetables and now their vegetables no longer taste like vegetables, instead they taste like the seasoning. I just don’t get that. Veggies taste great, why hide the taste underneath a bunch of seasoning? That’s how I felt with the sauerkraut, why hide the taste of the beef under the sauerkraut?
Maybe I’m just some sort of weird food purist at heart…says the woman who firmly believes ice cream is an acceptable option for dinner…not dessert, dinner. Yeah, let that sink in and wonder who decided to let me adult! lol 😉
