Instructions

• In a medium saucepan over high heat on the stove, bring the apple juice to a boil, stirring occasionally. Continue boiling until the juice is syrupy and reduced to about ⅓ cup, 20 to 30 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the mustard. Set aside. If the glaze hardens before you need to use it, gently reheat it (or keep it warm on a very low burner). 
• Meanwhile, prepare the sauerkraut. In a large skillet over medium-high heat on the stove, warm the oil. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the remaining sauerkraut ingredients, except the apple, cover, and cook for 5 minutes. Uncover, stir in the apple, replace lid, and cook for 5 minutes. Uncover, and cook until the sauerkraut is tender and the liquid is absorbed, about 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove from the heat.
