Title: Amish Sauerkraut Soup
Categories: Soup Penn Pickle Vegetable Sausage
Yield: 10 Servings

1lbSmoked sausage (Kielbasa)
6tbOnion; chopped
1/4cFlour
1/2tsThyme
1/2tsBlack pepper
3cMilk
1cHalf-and-half
8ozSauerkraut, with juice
1 1/2tbLemon juice (optional)
2tbFresh parsley; chopped

Chop the sausage coarsely by hand or in a food processor (leave the casing on). Transfer the sausage and onion to a deep pan, and saute over medium heat until the sausage is lightly browned, about 8 minutes.

On a small plate combine the flour, thyme, and pepper. Add to the sausage and brown all together until the mixture bubbles up, about 5 minutes. Add the milk and the half-and-half all at once, and cook stirring until the mixture again bubbles up, about 5 minutes. Add the sauerkraut and it juice and bring to a boil; the mixture will continue to thicken. Taste for tartness, and lemon juice if desired. Add the parsley and serve at once.
