My Grandma's Braised Cabbage

Ingredients

• 0.3 cup apple cider vinegar 
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar 
• 2 tablespoons butter 
• 0.3 cup red wine 
• 6 servings salt and pepper freshly ground
• 1  baking apples are apples that have a sweet-tart balance and hold their shape when grated peeled
• 0.3 cup water 
• 1  onion yellow with the grain sliced

Equipment

Directions

1. In a medium pot or Dutch oven, cook the onions in the butter over medium heat until softened, about 5 minutes.
2. Add the cabbage and cook, stirring, for a few minutes.
3. Add the apple, brown sugar, wine, vinegar, and water, and bring up to a simmer, stirring. Cover and braise for 30 minutes, stirring once and checking on the texture. Cook a little less for a firmer cabbage; a little more for softer cabbage.
4. Add a small splash of cider vinegar just before serving.
