Though I now live in Canada, my family is from Pennsylvania. My aunt Rachel was raised Amish until she married into the family. This is a dish she makes often, and it's so good. Serve over peeled, par boiled potatoes. Ingredients:
1/2 head of cabbage, shredded |
1 heaping tbl. shortening (ie crisco) |
3 tbl. sugar |
2 tbl. vinegar |
1 tbl. flour |
1 egg |
1 c. water |
Directions:
1. Place shredded cabbage in pot with a pinch of salt, shortening and enough of water to cover half way.
2. Cover and cook over medium-high heat until cabbage is soft.
3. Mix sugar, vinegar, flour, egg and water in small bowl.
4. Add to cabbage and cook until thick.
5. NOTE: the amount of sugar and vinegar can be adjusted to meet your individual tastes.
