Ingredients

  • 1 lb Red Cabbage shredded thinly
  • 1 whole Onion diced
  • 2 whole Bay leaves
  • 2 whole Cloves
  • 1/2 tsp Peppercorns whole
  • 1 whole Apple
  • 1 cup Red Wine
  • 1/4 cup Red Wine Vinegar
  • 1 tbsp Flour
  • 2 tbsp Butter

Instructions

  • Melt the butter in a large pot over medium high heat. Add the diced onions and sauté for 2-3 minutes. Add the diced apples and continue to sauté 2-3 minutes.
  • In a cheesecloth pouch, add the bay leaves, cloves and peppercorns together.
  • Add the cabbage, spices, salt, red wine and the red wine vinegar. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
  • Cover and simmer over low heat for 1.5 - 2 hours, checking occasionally to be sure there is enough moisture and the cabbage is not sticking.
  • When the cabbage is tender to your taste, sprinkle 1 tbsp of flour over the cabbage. Mix it in well and continue to cook the cabbage for 1 - 2 minutes, while any remaining liquid thickens.
  • Remove the cheesecloth pouch containing the bay leaves, cloves and peppercorns and serve
