German Red Cabbage Recipe

German Red Cabbage RecipePhoto by: Taste of Home German Red Cabbage Recipe Rating 5

Sunday afternoons were frequently a time for family gatherings. While the uncles played cards, the aunts prepared wonderful German treats such as this red cabbage. Oftentimes there wasn't enough room for everyone at the dining table, so the grown-ups and babies ate first. My cousins and I would hang around waiting for our turn, hoping there'd be plenty of food left.

Added another 1/3 cup red wine vinegar. Will use an additional apple next time.

Next time I'll use red wine vinegar instead of white to give it extra zip!

I too made this with Splenda as that is what my recipe called for. The picture & all other ingredients were the same. Loved it.

This was my first time making red cabbage, and it was fantastic. I've had it several times and substitute splenda for the sugar. It's great.
