Note

For best flavor, let the salad sit in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

If the sauerkraut is too salty, rinse it briefly under cold water before draining.

This salad is best enjoyed fresh. The grapes may release juice over time, so avoid preparing it too far in advance.

You can substitute red grapes if blue grapes are not available.
