Treat your ingredients with care...

  • Käsekrainer — Make sure to choose high-quality Käsekrainer sausages with a good balance of smoky flavor and cheese filling.
  • Kimchi — Opt for a spicy and tangy kimchi for the best flavor. If you prefer less spiciness, you can rinse the kimchi before sautéing it.

Tips & Tricks

  • If you can't find Käsekrainer sausages, you can substitute with regular smoked sausages and add a slice of cheese inside each sausage before grilling.
  • Adjust the amount of gochugaru (Korean red pepper flakes) according to your spice preference.
  • Serve the Kimchi-infused Käsekrainer with a side of pickled vegetables for added crunch and tanginess.
  • For a milder version, you can serve the sausages with a dollop of sour cream or yogurt to balance the spiciness.

Serving advice

Serve the Kimchi-infused Käsekrainer hot off the grill, accompanied by a generous portion of sautéed kimchi and steamed rice or noodles. Garnish with chopped green onions for a fresh and vibrant touch.

Presentation advice

Arrange the grilled Käsekrainer sausages on a platter, placing the sautéed kimchi alongside them. Sprinkle some sesame seeds and chopped green onions over the dish for added visual appeal. Serve with a side of steamed rice or noodles in a separate bowl.
