Choucroute can be called the older brother of our solyanka. It is believed that the first recipe for stewed cabbage with smoked meats appeared in Alsace many centuries ago. However, there are differences in the two related dishes: if solyanka is prepared from both fresh and sauerkraut, then in Alsace it is fermented without fail and only then subjected to heat treatment. Also, if in the Russian version cabbage is rarely diluted with other vegetables, then potatoes are very often added to choucroute, and different types of meat are also used in recipes, and in some regions, fish.
