SAUTEED RED CABBAGE WITHOUT VINEGAR
You defiantly can, however the vinegar does give it a better taste if you ask me.
This dish can accompany just about any type of meal or can be enjoyed on it’s own.
The balsamic vinegar gives the cabbage a nice tang, along with the butter and olive oil that help to balance the flavors.
These two oils really add a nice element so be sure not so skip on them.
Some people like to add sugar to this particular dish, however I don’t. I find the balsamic vinegar once cooked off, gives a great flavor.
Really there is not much to it, besides chopping the head of cabbage in half and cutting each pieces diagonally into slices.
Then sauteing it all together in one pan on the stove top till tender, approx 15 minutes. We hope you give it a try, and let us know how it turned out for you.
Notes: You can omit the butter and just use olive oil to if desired. Also you can add 1 tbsp of sugar if your wanting a more sweet dish.
