Rinsing the sauerkraut helps to reduce its acidity and saltiness, creating a more balanced flavor profile.
For an extra touch of sweetness, consider adding a tablespoon of brown sugar or maple syrup to the sauerkraut mixture while it's sautéing.
Serve with a dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of fresh parsley for added visual appeal and flavor.
