How to make it

  • Shred the cabbage into strips about ¼" by 1 or 2 inches. Chop onion; heat oil in medium sized pot; cook onion until soft. Add cabbage, water, and salt; cover and simmer on very low heat about 30-40 minutes until limp but not mushy. [There should be very little water left at this point. If there’s more than a few tablespoons present, drain most of it off, either reserving it for soup or discarding it.] Finish by stirring in vinegar and sugar. Taste test to see if it needs more salt/sugar/vinegar. Sprinkle flour across cabbage while quickly blending to avoid lumping. Turn up heat and cook, stirring, until thickened.

    Fantastic! This is exactly what I had in mind. The only addition I made was adding one cooking apple. A very good recipe.

    This recipe is very similar to how my mom made red cabbage. She used to shred a small apple into this dish, probable for sweetness.
