Shredded cucumber and spiral zucchini or beetroot are particularly good to add to kraut on hot summer days.
Vine-ripened tomatoes add more sweetness and natural juice.
For added sweetness to the “sauer”, add chunks of fresh fruit like mango, apple, grapes, pineapple and banana. Try raw honey and orange juice dressing in place of olive oil.
For more protein, add a soft boiled egg or a handful of activated walnuts, pecans, cashews or ethical meat of choice.
And to bring everything together, definitely look at trying a wide variety of salad dressings, fresh herbs and in season produce.
Unrefined extra virgin olive oil, cold-pressed nut oils and vinegar or citrus juice with raw local honey can make a super simple dressing, but you can also add onion, shallot or leek, fermented garlic / ginger/ horseradish, herbs and enrichment’s like home made tahini, egg yolks, buttermilk, miso or homemade kefir and yoghurt.
