A trilogy of applecider, cider vinegar, and ample chunks of Gala or Fuji contributes sweet-tart goodness to this Germanic dish. It's a simple, straightforward celebration of fall. Ingredients:
1 garlic clove, smashed |
3 tablespoons unsalted butter |
2 lb red cabbage, cored and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces |
1 gala or fuji apple, cored and cut into 1/2-inch cubes |
1/2 cup unfiltered apple cider |
1/2 teaspoon caraway seeds |
2 whole allspice (optional), crushed |
1 1/2 tablespoons apple-cider vinegar |
Directions:
1. Cook garlic in butter in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium heat, stirring, 1 minute. Add cabbage, apple, cider, caraway, allspice (if using), 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until cabbage is tender, 15 to 18 minutes.
2. Add vinegar and cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until liquid has evaporated, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
