Red Ruby Cabbage Slaw Ingredients:

  • 3/4 cup of wine vinegar
  • 1/3 cup pure maple syrup or brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup of water
  • 2 tbs fresh tarragon or 1 tbs dried
  • 1 tsp caraway seeds
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 6 cups finely chopped red cabbage
  • 1 medium onion finely diced

 

In a saucepan, combine the vinegar, maple syrup, water, tarragon, caraway seeds, and salt.  Heat until simmering.  Add the cabbage, onion and stir.  Cook, stirring often for 5 minutes or until the cabbage is bright magenta and slightly crunchy.  Transfer the cabbage to a ceramic or glass salad bowl and chill before serving.

 

 

Happy Fourth of July – Everyone!!!
