what uli said really easy, I made some today, although strictly speaking mine is kim chi as it has a whole lot of other ingredients. Sauerkraut is just cabbage, salt and carraway seeds.

In that case there must a shop that sells German products somewhere in Auckland? Actually now I think about it I'm sure I've seen it in shops that sell Dutch products, I know we have a big wholefood shop here that sells. Big Dutch community in Akld.

Familiar with the sauerkraut thread. ta. But need leaves already prepared for a surprise dish Friday night to remind someone of our childhood

yes there are - but none of it is fresh but all would be canned or bottled. And there will be none with whole leaves. All is shredded.
So sorry daarhn - either postpone that dinner and make it yourself or change the menu :)

what about the deli shop end of lIncoln Road, as you get off the motorway to head down there? (Where metalman is, where the garden shop used to be). think it is euro-dell, or similar.
Otherwise there may be something down Dominion Road, as they have all sorts there.

The 'recipes' are in my head. Learned from the Babas & Tetes who never used a recipe in their life. The old way of oral history. Not something you can write down, as it changes with seasons, moods, people you're with and the occasions you're cooking for.

Yep my recipes are in my head also and I also try to help people out who want to do sauerkraut or sourdough bread or many other of these old time food preparations. Many things can be described without measurements or moods. And we can all do seasonal adjustments. I hope your Croatian dishes will work out well.
