I use finely sliced onions, cooking or tart eating apples grated, a little vinegar (balsamic for preference) a mere sprinkle of brown sugar and a dusting of cinnamon.

I can't stand anything as mushy as the classic long-cooked red cabbage. I just cook it like a 'drumhead' cabbage, but with vinegar in the water instead of salt. The vinegar keeps it bright red, and adds just enough sharp 'tang', but it is still slightly crisp, as cabbage ought to be.

I did mine with onions, parsnips, white wine vinegar, brown sugar, nutmeg, cloves and cinnamon.....

Onion and cooking apple here - and I cook it in vegetable stock.

My Gerry (OH) always makes this. It is a slow cook one but in no way does it become mushy. We omit tinned chestnuts and substitute our own frozen fresh ones. It is simply the best.

I would so love to have copied this link so that it appeared ready to be opened. I have been told before but I have forgotten. Story of my life.

Sounds good, thanks Brengirl!

Thanks everyone, you have all given me some great ideas.

Can I make this in advance and freeze it? Or will it go mushy and horrible?

**rustylady** · 22-12-2011, 09:58 AM

I've frozen it and it's been OK.
