I am with you on that! How I hate sharks. A good shark is a dead shark. And would you believe this? Those surfing people along the California coast know that place is loaded with some of the most vicious, mean, nasty, buggers with sharp teeth and like to eat.

Those people are just crazy...

I tried once, just only once, to take a swim in the Pugent sound here...whoooohhhhhooo, that water is coldddddd! Involuntary reaction brought my cold self out real fast!

I was trying to think on this. I do not remember hearing a person being bitten by a killer whale here. They really like to eat seals and many times on television, has shown a killer whale chasing a salmon. The poor salmon would swim down, up, and very fast forward with the killer whale just following along.

There is a tribe of Indians north a short distance from here on the Canadian side on the straights off Vancouver Island. They claim that the killer whales are the carrier of their ancestor spirits. In recent years, there has been many run ins with those Indians and the department of fisheries on the US side.
Not sure what Indians must eat on the side, but, it must be good!

Jaga. Try adding crushed stewed tomatoes and cooked Barley to that sauerkraut. That salisian Kluski looks more like Matso Balls. The Kluski I remember was rolled out on the kitchen table, strips were cut out with a knife, boiled and then draped over the back of a kitchen chair to dry out a bit. The kluski was then used in Chicken soup. ;D

Bob,

interesting idea. I never tried tomatoes, but carots or onion but maye this is worth to try.

I saw the matso balls in the store I was tempted to buy it and try, probably I need to try and check whether there is any similarity

;D Jaga. My babcia and my mother use to prepare Sauerkraut that way and then they would put smoked keilbasa in it and bake it in an oven. They also added the Apples but I didn't like them that much. Apples taste good when they are natural or baked in a pie. BTW, have you tried Rhubarb pie lately?
;D

My favorite way to do saurkraut and a "hit" for family as well as at any potluck...

1 - Rinse saurkraut with cold water in a colander or sieve;

2 - Place in slo-cooker ("crockpot") or oven baker;

3 - Add one coarsely chopped onion (as sweet as you can find);

4 - Add one or two diced cooking apples (Cortland or such, not Delicious!) - we leave the skins on;

5 - Caraway seed - amount depends upon your liking of caraway and the amount of sauerkraut;

6 - kielbasa cut into 2-3-inch chunks;

7 - cook slowly...stir ocassionally...you will smell when this ready to eat.

***In my very old slo-cooker, I start this the night before I need it. I let it cook on low all night. It is usually ready by the next morning.

This is definitely a recipe you need to experiemtn with until you get the proportions and time to your liking.

Friends now request that we bring my big crock-pot full of this dish to get-togethers...it disappears I usually bring a loaf or two of rye bread along aswell...however, people will eat it up without the bread.
