- Meanwhile, slice onions thinly. In a separate frying pan, heat 1-2 Tablespoons oil and sauté onions until translucent, but not brown (about 5 minutes).
- When onions are soft, mix in 2 tsp paprika and stir into onions. Remove from heat.
- Add sauerkraut to the pot, with a little bit of the juice, after initial 30 minutes is up.
- Next stir in the onions, mushrooms and garlic. Cover with lid and simmer for another 30 minutes.
- Remove ham from soup. Cut meat from bone (if any) and cut off any of the thick pieces of skin. Chop up the meat into small pieces.
- Return ham to pot and simmer another 20 minutes. If you have some red wine, add 1/2 cup or so to give the soup even more flavor!
- Cut up the sausage and add it to the pot along with the vinegar, sugar and marjoram (or other herbs like herbes de Provence, thyme, etc.).
- Cook for another 5-10 minutes. Add a little more vinegar, salt, pepper, and/or sugar to adjust to your taste. Serve with a dollop of sour cream, plain yogurt, etc. over top.
