#HomeFreeAlaska #OffGrid #Alaska
Fall is upon us & I couldn't be more excited. After the hustle & bustle of the summer season, all the projects, work & adventures, I know that in about a month it'll all slow down. Winter is that way isn't it? Ready or not, here it comes & it forces you to slow down & hunker in more by the fire. I'm grateful for the seasons changing as a lot of us would just keep going full steam ahead with no slow down amen? But the slow down is desperately needed, even if we don't realize it. Besides who am I kidding, there's still a lot of work to do once the temperatures drop. Spend a couple days with us on our Alaska homestead as we continue work on our cabin addition, cook a delicious sausage sauerkraut soup for dinner, homeschool + I'm feeling artsy/crafty & decided to make a beautiful, easy, FALL garland for the kitchen window in the cabin. Thanks for joining me for another video friends, Happy Fall season! Cheers...

SAUSAGE & SAUERKRAUT SOUP
Ingredients:
1 lb sausage (I used mild Italian sausage)
2 tbsp of butter
2 small onions or 1 large onion, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
3-4 white potatoes (peeled and cut into small bite sized cubes)
3 tbsp tomato paste
2 carrots, grated
5-6 cups beef or chicken stock (preferably homemade)
1/2 tsp caraway seeds (optional)
1/3 to 1/2 cup of pearl barley
8-12 oz/225 grams of sauerkraut (liquid drained off)
Salt/pepper to taste
2-3 tsp Italian seasoning
DIRECTIONS:
In a large pot over medium heat, melt butter.
Adds onions & garlic to the melted butter and cook until onions are translucent.
Dice potatoes into bite size pieces and grate carrots.
Add potatoes and carrots to the pot with tomato paste, barley, caraway seeds, and chicken stock.
Cook for 20-25 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a separate frying pan, cook sausages & set aside to cool.
You may deglaze the sausage pan with a bit of warm stock to add some extra sausage flavor to the soup.
Add the sauerkraut to the soup pot and cook soup for another 15-20 minutes until the barley is tender.
Once the sausage is cool enough to handle, slice it into small rounds and add to the soup.
Taste to adjust for salt, then serve.
