About this deal

High street health food store Holland and Barrett don’t currently sell unpasteurised sauerkraut, although they do sell Biona Organic Kimchi, also made from fermented cabbage. Biona is an organic company here in the UK. Unfortunately it is not unpasteurised.

Charlie Holland, senior marketing manager for Vadasz, said: “Vadasz Raw Kimchi and Raw Garlic and Dill Sauerkraut make it easy to add a burst of colour, taste and texture to the meals we love – as well as create new and inspired recipes such as kimchi pancakes. If the sauerkraut doesn’t taste at all acidic, has an off smell or taste or is disoloured, discard that batch. Once the sauerkraut is ready, it can be labelled and stored in the fridge. I usually start eating mine when it is around 10 days old. If kept sealed, it should last for a few months and will develop a stronger, more tangy flavour. If you are dipping in regularly, you may inadvertently introduce other bacteria to the jar, so it's best consumed within a week or two.Transfer the broken-down cabbage to a clean glass jar, pressing the cabbage underneath the liquid using a wooden spoon. Add a little extra water if required.

You may already include some of these foods (such as berries, kale, fatty fish and lentils) in your diet. But there’s a superfood full of health benefits that you might not be as familiar with. What Is Unpasteurised Sauerkraut? The fermentation process creates conditions that are perfect for the growth of helpful probiotics (live bacteria and yeasts that are beneficial to our health). Several studies have shown that cabbage and sauerkraut can reduce carcinogen-activating enzymes which may lead to cancer, and other studies have shown that “women who ate a lot of cabbage and sauerkraut from their teens into adulthood had a reduced risk of breast cancer.” ( source) Canned, pasteurised sauerkraut might be easier to find in a supermarket, but the beneficial bacteria produced during the lacto-fermentation process are killed during pasteurisation, along with other nutrients such as Vitamin C. Could improve brain health –The health of our brain is also linked to our digestive system. Probiotics have been linked to improvements in memory, and can be helpful in those suffering from anxiety and depression.Research out of Stanford University, for example, has found that a 10-week diet high in fermented foods boosts microbiome diversity and improves immune responses. Foods consumed during the study included yoghurt, kefir, fermented cottage cheese, kimchi and kombucha tea.

Vadasz distinguishes itself in the supermarket by selling in the chilled aisles. Being a live, unpasteurised, naturally fermented product, it must be kept chilled, he explained. “When you see…products in the ambient aisles, that’s when you know it’s been pasteurised. That’s the difference.”​ Taste first, health is a bonus​ The new range includes Raw Kimchi and Raw Garlic & Dill Sauerkraut and comes amid the driving interest in both fermented and Korean food.

According to Charlie Holland, head of marketing at Vadasz, the business is always on the lookout for new ingredient combinations. “Pineapple and turmeric are both on trend superfood ingredients that consumers are increasingly seeking out, so we’re extremely excited to be offering this brand-new flavour profile in our Pineapple and Turmeric Sauerkraut.​ Popular fermented foods include yoghurt, kefir, cottage cheese, kimchi, kombucha tea and sauerkraut (pictured). GettyImages/ollo Taste the sauerkraut after 4 days and, if the flavour is as you like it, you can slow the fermentation dramatically by chilling. Alternatively, leave longer to develop the flavour more fully. The sauerkraut should be tangy with a slightly salty cabbage flavour and will become crunchier.
