Choucroute from Alsace at The Paris!!!!

Choucroute is the famous French sauerkraut and sausage fest, the ultimate "baby-it's-cold-outside" dish from the Alsace region of France, served by all the famous and venerable brasserie institutions of Paris like Bofinger, Brasserie Lipp, Le Balzar, Au Pied de Cochon, La Coupole, and for years now, in the midst of the winter, The Paris Bistro in Sugarhouse....



Choucroute is an Alsatian recipe for preparing sauerkraut with sausages, salted and smoked pork as well as potatoes. Here at The Paris, Mr. Siegfried makes our sausages and delivers them to us including Knackwurst, Fleischwurst, Wienerwurst, Weißwurst, Bratwurst ,Salt Pork, Kassler (smoked pork chop). We use fresh Kraut from an organic farm in Washington, not pasteurized so it is crispier and a really great foil for the sausage. We cook the kraut together with the pork slowly for hours with white Alsatian wine (Pinot Blanc, Gewurztraminer or Pinot Gris), juniper berries, pink peppercorns, coriander and onions, carrots and potatoes.

The Paris also features many Alsatian white wines that are a match made in heaven with Choucroute. Choucroute will be served as a special at The Paris for the next few weeks only, while it is the season. Please call 801-486-5585 for reservations or click here
