Food & Beverages Cooking Press Release Chefs Boost Sauerkraut's Trendy Food Status
New York magazine recently cited contemporary restaurant Fette Sau as a new place for hipsters to frequent. Sauerkraut is a Fette Sau menu item expected to attract true-blue barbecue lovers, the magazine said.
"Finding Sauerkraut on the menu today at your favorite trendsetting restaurant is not unusual," said Ryan Downs, co-owner of Great Lakes Kraut Co., the world's largest Sauerkraut manufacturer. "It's common to find it in both sandwich and dinner menu items."
Thanks to recent, well-publicized scientific studies on the health benefits of Sauerkraut - and its chemical compounds that help defend against cancer - fermented cabbage has enjoyed rising popularity among chefs at trendy restaurants across the nation.
Sauerkraut-related health stories - like research by Michigan State University and the University of New Mexico highlighting Sauerkraut's effects on breast cancer risk - have encouraged chefs and restaurants to use Sauerkraut, said Jonathan Locke, a chef and co-founder of restaurant consulting firm FoodSense. That includes "those who were familiar with it and had forgotten about it, as well as consumers in general," he said. "It's got a lot of potential that is waiting to be tapped."
