Bought some red cabbage - now help me please!
- d
- Diane in Bexley Oct 7, 2010 11:54 AM
Will be having some friends over for small dinner party Fri evening. Planning to serve pickled cucumber salad, "baked" steak (sirloin roast w/ onion/tomato/lemon sauce), and potato/swiss cheese gratin. Want to use the cabbage as vegetable. Perhaps with apples? Have some Golden Delicious on hand. Will be serving apple/cheese/almond tart for dessert. Any ideas? Thanks!
re: monavano
caraway seeds work well with braised cabbage too.
Yes, braise it. And definitely make it a day ahead, b/c it is much better the next day, like most cabbage dishes.
Personally, I'm non too crazy about a lot of sweetness in that dish, so I'd go easy on the sugar or honey or raisins. Unless, of course, you like it that way.
In any event, start off with sweating some grated onion and a nice tart apple in lard or bacon fat. Add cabbage. Maybe throw in a clove or two.
re: linguafood
i'm with you linguafood, i like it more sour than sweet. unsweetened dried cranberries or tart cherries can be a good alternative to raisins for that reason.
This recipe is a favorite of mine- and it can be made earlier in the day and reheated. Basically, it's a sweet/sour red cabbage with apples and onions.
Sautee a thinly sliced red onion in a little oil until translucent and browned around the edges. Add in a peeled, thinly sliced apple and cook till soft.
Thinly slice a head of red cabbage and add to the onion/apple mixture. When the cabbage starts to wilt, add in a big splash of apple cider vinegar and about 1/4 cup of brown sugar. Season with lots of salt and white pepper.
Let the mixture cook till the cabbage is soft - I like it really soft so I cook for about 45 minutes-1 hour. The cabbage turns blue-ish, so to get it back to a bright purple color, add another splash of vinegar at the end of cooking.
re: cheesecake17
This looks like rotkohl, one of my favorites:
A great example of how sweet and sour tastes belong together. Also, if you go with a 'tart only' recipe it would be too much like the OP's pickled cucumber salad.
re: DiveFan
Yes, very similar, but I don't use bacon or any meat in mine. I love anything sweet and sour!
re: DiveFan
Funny, I thought we had been talking rotkohl the whole time... then again, I'm German '-D
Personally, I don't like serving a meal with repetitive ingredients unless the meal has a theme or if you're using the same ingredients as in a mirepoix. The apples in the cabbage & then an apple tart for me would be too much. I'd leave out the apple in the cabbage & render down some chopped bacon & cook the cabbage in the grease with some onions, a bit of brown sugar, lots of freshly ground black pepper....maybe some balsamic vinegar then add the bacon back at the end.
re: Cherylptw
Yes, this one! Yum!
A slow braise is what everyone always suggests for red cabbage and I can see why. It's easy and pretty versatile (it often appears on our Christmas Day lunch table, done with cranberry instead of apple).
But I also like it, using pretty much the same flavourings, done as a quick stirfry as this recipe:
My only comment is that, whatever you do, it would come out much better if you'd had a more flavoursome apple than Golden Delicious, which is not a variety I would ever buy these days.
I'm not sure I would serve the tart. You're already intending a lot of sharp flavours - the cucumber salad, the lemon in the sauce, the apples in the cabbage -
I did not have a chance to fix the cabbage last night, so will have to start at 4 p.m. for dinner tonight. Bacon grease is not an option. Will sweat some onion and the cabbage in EVOO and braise in liquid of apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, s&p. Have both white and black pepper, why white pepper and not black? Have some dried cranberries (or are those dried cherries) in the pantry, will use those instead of apples. I like the cabbage pretty soft, so probably 45 min. Thanks!
re: Diane in Bexley
If you can't use bacon grease, I'd opt for a less intense oil than olive.
re: linguafood
I concur about the more neutral oil, and Harter's comment that there is allready enough tart on the table. At our danish holiday meals the red cabbage had red wine instead of vinegar, and enough brown sugar to add a noticeable sweetness, and it was all vegetarian. We had enough tart with the creamed onions and parsnips. Along with the peas and mushrooms, the cabbage added a nice extra color to the whole plate.
Dinner was a huge hit on Friday. We had some Russian friends in for dinner who fell so much in love with the red cabbage, they asked to take home the leftovers!

Preview & discussion of the Documentary "Me Facing Life: Cyntoia's Story."
Cyntoia Brown was an average teenager in an American town. But a series of bad decisions led the 16-year-old into a situation that ended with her killing a man who had picked her up for sex. She was sentenced to Life in a Tennessee Prison meaning, in her case, she will serve a minimum of 51 years. This film challenges our assumptions about violence and explores how factors such as biology and family history can doom some young people from the start.

Results of Operations and Financial Condition, Financial Statements and Exhibits
Ford Motor Company ("Ford") hereby incorporates by reference its news release dated October 24, 2013, which is filed as Exhibit 99 hereto.
Ford will conduct two conference calls on October 24, 2013 to review preliminary third quarter 2013 financial results. Beginning at 9:00 a.m., Ford President and Chief Executive Officer Alan Mulally and Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Bob Shanks will host a presentation for the investment community and news media. Investors may access this presentation by dialing 1-800-510-0219 (or 1-617-614-3451 from outside the United States). The passcode for either telephone number is a verbal response of "Ford Earnings."
At 11:00 a.m., Ford Vice President and Treasurer Neil Schloss, Ford Vice President and Controller Stuart Rowley, and Ford Motor Credit Company Chief Financial Officer Mike Seneski will host a presentation focusing on Ford Motor Credit Company's preliminary third quarter 2013 financial results. Representatives of the investment community may access this presentation by dialing 1-866-515-2907 (or 1-617-399-5121 from outside the United States). The passcode for either telephone number is a verbal response of "Ford Fixed Income."
A listen-only webcast and supporting presentation materials for these calls is available on the Internet at www.shareholder.ford.com. Investors also may access replays of the presentations beginning after 2:00 p.m. the day of the event through Thursday, October 31, 2013 by dialing 1-888-286-8010 (or 1-617-801-6888 from outside the United States). The passcode for replays of the earnings call is 69976870; the passcode for replays of the fixed income call is 16609400. All times referenced above are in Eastern Time.
Please note that Exhibit 99 to this Form 8-K discusses various financial measures "excluding special items" and/or with other adjustments. The most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") are these same measures including special items and/or without adjustments. We believe that showing these measures on a basis that excludes special items and/or includes other adjustments is useful to investors, because it allows investors to evaluate our results excluding or adjusting for items related to our efforts to match production capacity and cost structure to market demand and changing model mix, as well as items that we do not necessarily consider to be indicative of earnings from ongoing operating activities.
In addition, Exhibit 99 discusses our key cash metrics, Automotive operating-related cash flow (which we believe best represents the ability of our Automotive operations to generate cash), Automotive gross cash (including cash and cash equivalents and net marketable securities), and net interest. We believe that Automotive operating-related cash flow is useful to investors because it includes elements that we consider to be related to our operating activities (e.g., capital spending), and excludes cash flow elements that we do not consider to be related to the ability of our operations to generate cash. The most comparable GAAP measure is Cash flows from operating activities of continuing operations on our statement of cash flows. The most comparable GAAP measure for Automotive gross cash is the sum of the individual line items on our balance sheet for each of the elements within that measure (Cash and cash equivalents and Marketable securities). Net interest primarily measures profit variances driven by changes in our Automotive sector's centrally managed net interest (primarily interest expense, interest income, and other adjustments). The most comparable GAAP measure for net interest is the sum of Interest expense, interest income, and gains/losses on the majority of our investments which are reported in Automotive interest income and other income/(loss), net on our income statement.
