Savoy Cabbage With Cider Bacon And Carrots Recipes

SAVOY CABBAGE WITH CIDER, BACON AND CARROTS

Steps:

• In a large, wide pot (8 quarts or larger), saute bacon over medium heat until fat is rendered and the bacon begins to crisp. Add onions and carrots; saute for about 3 minutes. Add garlic; saute for 2 minutes.
• Add cabbage, caraway seeds, apple cider, vinegar, apples, bay leaf, and salt and pepper to taste. Saute, stirring, until the cabbage is tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Add butter, and stir well. Serve hot.

WARM SAVOY CABBAGE SLAW

Steps:

• Coat a large, wide pot with olive oil and add the bacon. Render the bacon over medium heat. Add the red onions, season with salt, and sweat for 4 to 5 minutes. Add the carrots and stir to combine. Add the cabbage, cider vinegar, mustard seeds, thyme, and bay leaves. Season with salt and taste. This will taste very vinegary but the salt will help offset the sharpness of the vinegar.
• Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until the cabbage is very soft, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the lid, add the apple cider, and simmer until most of the vinegar has absorbed but the cabbage is still moist but not soupy, an additional 10 minutes. Serve right away or let it hang out in the refrigerator. It will probably be better in a couple of days. Garnish with chives.

SAUTEED CABBAGE AND CARROTS

Steps:

• Heat canola oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and cook until soft. Add ginger and garlic, cook for about 1 minute, stirring frequently. Add carrots, cabbage, salt and black pepper; Cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Next add the vinegar and stir to combine. Remove from heat. Serve warm.
• Notes: I prefer the cabbage to be crisp but if you prefer it to be softer you can add about 1/4 vegetable or chicken stock, and cook for an additional 10 minutes or until it is the texture that you desire. If using stock, be sure to adjust the amount of salt in the dish since stocks do tend to have sodium.
