Sweet-and-Sour Red Cabbage

Serves: 6 to 8

·        1 small head red cabbage, shredded

·        1 medium Red Delicious apple, peeled, cored, and chopped

·        1 medium onion, chopped

·        1 cup water

·        1/2 cup apple cider vinegar

·        1/2 cup sugar

·        2 tablespoons butter

·        1/4 teaspoon ground cloves

·        1/2 teaspoon salt

1. In a large saucepan, combine all the ingredients and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

 

2. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender.

 

Note: This will last in the fridge, covered, for a week or two. I recommend storing it in a glass container because the red cabbage could stain plastic containers, and vinegar could react with metal ones, giving the finished dish a metallic taste.
