Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cabbage

    Remove the outer leaves of the red cabbage and cut it into quarters. Remove the core and slice the cabbage into thin strips.

  2. 2

    Cook the Apple

    In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped apple and sauté for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened.

  3. 3

    Add Cabbage and Seasonings

    Add the sliced red cabbage to the pot. Sprinkle in the sugar, salt, ground cinnamon, ground allspice, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.

  4. 4

    Add Vinegar and Simmer

    Pour in the apple cider vinegar. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it braise for about 45 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Once the cabbage is tender and the flavors have melded, remove from heat. Adjust seasoning if necessary and serve warm.
