Title: red wine cabbage • 57 - Quick Fix : Every Occasion
Post by: CreamPuff63 on March 30, 2015, 03:05:49 pm: This was made as a side dish to some Italian pork cutlets. It was quite enjoyable and quite different to a bland cabbage. Served with asparagus and mash potato as well and what was put on the plates was all eaten. Guest for dinner said he didn't eat cabbage often but really enjoyed this. Adds a nice colour to the plate as well. As an added bonus when you finish cooking your TM jug is nice and shiny!

I've eaten both and I've eaten them in a combined coleslaw but I haven't really noticed if the flavour is different. I consulted my Stephanie Alexander bible and all she says about the red cabbage is that its "dramatic".
