• Melt the butter in a large Dutch oven over medium high heat. Add the diced onions and saute for 2-3 minutes. Add the diced apples and continue to saute 2-3 minutes.
• Tie the bay leaves, cloves, and peppercorns together in a cheesecloth. (Optional, but this makes for much easier removal later).
• Add the cabbage, spices, salt, red wine, and 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 isn't sticking.
• When the cabbage is tender to your liking, 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.
• This dish can be served immediately (remember to take out the bay leaves, peppercorn, and cloves) or it can be refrigerated for later. Some people swear that the flavor improves with time.

BRAISED TURNIP GREENS

Steps:

• Place the turkey wings in a 3-quart saucepan and add enough water to just cover them, about 5 cups. Bring to a boil, skimming off any foam that forms on the surface. Reduce to a simmer and let cook, uncovered, 1 1/2 hours. Strain the wings and remove the meat from the bones and set aside; discard the bones. Reserve 1 1/2 cups of the broth; save the remaining broth for another use.
• Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the onion and cook until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garlic and red pepper and cook 1 minute more. Add turnip greens in batches, allowing each batch to wilt and stirring to distribute before adding the next batch.
• Once all the greens are added, stir in the vinegar, brown sugar, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Return the turkey to the pot along with the reserved broth. Reduce the heat to low, cover and let simmer until the greens are very tender, about 40 minutes.
