Sauerkraut with Smoked Pork and Potatoes

Nutritional values
Kassler with sauerkraut and potatoes is a real classic that tastes especially good in the cold season. Especially in winter, sauerkraut is a good source of vitamin C: Just one portion (250 grams) provides 50 milligrams of the defensive strength enhancer; this covers half of the average daily requirement of 100 milligrams of vitamin C. On top of that, sauerkraut contains lactic acid bacteria that strengthen our intestinal flora and thus boost our immune system.
Only unheated fresh food sauerkraut is teeming with lactic acid bacteria, while canned cabbage is pasteurised or sterilised so that it can be kept for as long as possible - and that kills off the healthy bacteria. You can buy fresh sauerkraut in health food stores, health food shops or at the weekly market, but make sure to label it "fresh".
