Vinegar Slithered Green Cabbage Recipes

VINEGAR-SLITHERED GREEN CABBAGE

Steps:

• Rinse and drain the cabbage mix sauce ingredients in a bowl Heat the wok until it's hot then add the oil and peppers.
• Cook them until the peppers turn a deep red (don't allow to burn).
• Add the cabbage and cook for 2 minutes until it turns bright green, but is still a bit crisp.
• Add the sauce and stir until the starch turns translucent.
• Serve with rice.

CABBAGE WITH VINEGAR

Steps:

• Using a large, sharp knife, finely slice the cabbage. It will look like straw when done.
• Combine the vinegar and water. I find the least expensive off-brand vinegar tastes the best. Pour over the cabbage in a large bowl. Depending on the yield of the cabbage, you can adjust the liquid. You want the cabbage coated but not swimming in liquid. Add black pepper and salt to taste and mix all ingredients thoroughly. Goes great with gumbos or stews.

SAUTéED CABBAGE

Steps:

• Cut the cabbage in half from its top down through its core. Place the cut-side down on your cutting board, then slice it as thinly as possible around the core so that you have fine ribbons. Discard the core.
• Heat a large saute pan or similar heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Add olive oil and butter. Once the butter is melted, add the cabbage, salt, and pepper. Saute for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is tender and begins to brown. Don't feel like you need to constantly stir it. Leaving cabbage undisturbed for a minute or two as you go is what will allow it to develop brown caramelized bits (aka FLAVOR).
• Remove from the heat and stir in the apple cider vinegar. Taste and add a bit of additional salt and pepper if you like, or a splash more vinegar if you'd like to add more zippy and acidic flavors. Sprinkle with thyme. Serve warm.

GREEN CABBAGE BRAISED IN CIDER WITH APPLES

Steps:

• Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Blanch cabbage until just tender, about 2 minutes. Drain and set aside.
• Heat butter in a large straight-sided skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic, and cook until they begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Add cabbage, cider vinegar, apple cider, honey, salt, pepper, cloves, and allspice. Toss to coat. Cover, and simmer until very tender, about 40 minutes. While cabbage is cooking, core apples; cut into 3/4-inch pieces. Toss with lemon juice; set aside.
• Add apples and caraway seeds to pan; cook, uncovered, until apples begin to brown slightly, and most of the liquid has evaporated, about 10 minutes. Serve.
