Sweet & Sour Red Cabbage (German/Austrian Style)

1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter
1 2-pound red cabbage, thinly sliced (about 12 cups)
6 Tbsp sugar
2/3 cup balsamic vinegar

Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add cabbage and sauté until slightly wilted, about 5 minutes. Add sugar, toss to coat evenly. Add vinegar. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer until cabbage is tender, stirring often, about 30 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Sweet and sour red cabbage is pretty basic, you could search the net and find lots of variations and level of difficulty. You could also make cole slaws, beef and cabbage hash....there are lots of dishes you can use cabbage in....or better yet, create one of your own. Cooking is fun, enjoy it and be creative.

I could pick out a recipe but there are too many to choose from. Go to allrecipes.com.
Do you like sauerkraut? The color is a little funky with red cabbage but tasty. Also Mom used to make relish both sweet and dill with surplus cabbage. Great on hot dogs and burgers.
I like cabbage just about any way it's fixed. Slaw or fried with a little bacon. Or German fried cabbage with green apples.
Okay, copied one for you

As long as you have a garden full, have you tried kimchee? Check out the usual cooking sites (all recipes,cooks recipes, etc...) for the quick versions. The authentic Japanese or Korean versions take forever. It's tasty stuff.
