Recipe - Kapusta Kiszona Z Grzybami (Stewed Sauerkraut With Mushroom

1 ounce Mushrooms, dried
(or use One fourth lb
Fresh mushrooms)
One half cup Water, warm
1 lg Onion
2 One half tablespoon Butter
1 One half pound Sauerkraut; rinsed/drained
1/3 cup Water
2 tablespoon Flour
Salt and pepper

Soak the dried mushrooms in One half cup of warm water for 1 hour. Saute
mushrooms and onion in butter in a skillet 3 minutes. Add sauerkraut to
mushrooms; cook and stir for 10 minutes. Blend 1/3 cup water into flour.
Mix with sauerkraut and simmer for 15 minutes. Season to taste with salt
and pepper. I usually like to add One fourth cup of dark rum after cooking. That
reminds me of the recipe I have for *bigos* (similar in construction but
with more ingredients). Original recipe passed down through the generations
and translated from Polish into English (with a few mods) by From:
