From the Test Kitchen

Kielbasa is the name we use to to refer to Polish sausage. In Poland, it’s the star of the national dish called “Bigos,” or hunter’s stew, a hearty, complex concoction made with cabbage, smoked meats, and loads of herbs and spices. In this recipe, the sweet-and-sour cabbage with onion and apple is a fresh twist on traditional sauerkraut, which is typically served with Kielbasa.
