I love red cabbage - this dish reminds me of one served to me years ago by Norwegian friends. I'm surprised that anyone would think this called for odd or unusual ingredients. My. skbutler	3 weeks 5 days ago
AWESOME!!! This is pretty much a "pantry" recipe unless you don't keep cabbage around, which depends on the family. I didn't have caraway seeds, but I looked online and ground cumin has a close flavor profile, so I used that. I LOVED THIS SALAD! We had a bunch of cabbage lying around, needed to use it and I am sick of coleslaw for awhile. This will be a new staple salad in our house, especially in winter, since it is a warm salad.

I love red cabbage and will definitely be trying this! Thanks for another great tip. (If people crab about not having the ingredients, why even bother to make a comment at all?) Linda, Clinton Twp, MI	8 weeks 6 days ago

This was delicious (and we had all the ingredients in our pantry). We doubled the apples, though. This reminds me of a recipe from when I was growing up. It's delicious with pork chops (we make our own version of shake and bake, without the chemicals). Jordan, Long Beach, CA	8 weeks 6 days ago
I cook red cabbage often. It makes amazing cabbage rolls too! Re the ingredients, caraway seeds go into coleslaw better than celery seeds; mix honey with Dijon for a delicious coating for baking chicken & pork; red wine vinegar, dijon, extra virgin olive oil, minced garlic, s & p make a great home-made salad dressing. anonymous in Ontario	8 weeks 6 days ago
Actually, the recipe is Flemish; this one is a German fantasy.. We cook the cabbage with the (sweet) apples (slow simmer) and yes, you can add any kind of vinegar but do add the walnuts at the end. Anonymous, Antwerp	8 weeks 6 days ago
Very tasty, quick, and easy. I always have red wine vinegar (for my Greek pasta salad), caraway seeds (for my rye bread), and dijon mustard (I prefer this to plain yellow mustard))in the pantry. Thanks for a great way to fix one of my favorite veggies. Anonymous, Marysville, OH	8 weeks 6 days ago
It sounds delicious. As for the grumpy person who complained about not having the right ingredients, all they have to do it substitute with other ingredients: cider vinegar, other vegetable oil, another kind of spicy brown mustard, use other seeds or skip them altogether, onion or leek instead of shallot, other nuts. It will still taste good. Anonymous, Warren, MI	8 weeks 6 days ago
