 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    1       lb           Smoked sausage (Kielbasa)
    6       tb           Onion -- chopped
      1/4   c            Flour
      1/2   ts           Thyme
      1/2   ts           Black pepper
    3       c            Milk
    1       c            Half-and-half
    8       oz           Sauerkraut, with juice
    1 1/2   tb           Lemon juice (optional)
    2       tb           Fresh parsley -- chopped
 
   Chop the sausage coarsely by hand or in a food
   processor (leave the casing on).  Transfer the sausage
   and onion to a deep pan, and saute over medium heat
   until the sausage is lightly browned, about 8 minutes.
   
   On a small plate combine the flour, thyme, and pepper.
   Add to the sausage and brown all together until the
   mixture bubbles up, about 5 minutes.  Add the milk and
   the half-and-half all at once, and cook stirring until
   the mixture again bubbles up, about 5 minutes.  Add
   the sauerkraut and it juice and bring to a boil; the
   mixture will continue to thicken.  Taste for tartness,
   and lemon juice if desired.  Add the parsley and serve
   at once.  From Cooking from Quilt Country by Marcia
