Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 medium red cabbage -- (about 3 pounds)
3 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon sugar -- or more, according to taste
1/4 cup vinegar
Salt and pepper -- to taste
2 medium tart apples -- peeled, cored and chopped (optional)
1/2 cup red currant jelly

Remove and discard tough outer leaves from cabbage. Shred cabbage very
fine. In heavy kettle, melt butter. Add sugar, but do not brown. Add
cabbage and cook 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Add vinegar, water, salt
and pepper to taste. Simmer covered for 2-3 hours, or until cabbage is
very tender. Stir occasionally, and if necessary, add a little hot water
to prevent scorching. When cabbage is almost tender, add apples, if
desired, and red currant jelly. Cabbage should be quite sweet-sour. If
necessary, add more sugar or vinegar, a little at a time. Simmer covered
for 30 minutes longer, stirring occasionally. Serve with roast goose or
duck. This is best if made a day ahead, and reheated slowly.

Serves 4, as a side
