Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Toss bread cubes with melted butter in a bowl.
  2. Whisk ingredients for the reuben sauce; taste and adjust.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine the sauerkraut, parsley, and caraway seeds.
  4. Layer half of the bread/butter mixture on the bottom of a 9×13 baking dish. Bake for 10 minutes and remove from the oven.
  5. Layer the remaining ingredients on top of the baked bread cubes. This is the order I usually follow: sauerkraut, cheese, sauce, corned beef, sauerkraut, cheese, sauce. Finish with a little more cheese and the remainder of bread cubes. Bake for 35 minutes.
  6. Drizzle with sauce, sprinkle with parsley, and serve!
