This is so much better when made with cabbage and potatoes straight from the ground. Most people I know use just a couple of tablespoons of spicy or hot sweet mustard, but I just use regular yellow mustard (and more of it) due to personal preference. I also use a lower fat pork & alligator sausage from Winn-Dixie that might not be available everywhere. I’m sure it would work with any kind.
Comfort food at it’s best! Sauteed green cabbage with apple, herbs, and white wine vinegar. Serve hot topped with crispy crumbled bacon. Delicious! Note: Use any green cabbage (Napa, green or Savoy cabbage) for this dish; adjust cooking times to suit.
Vienna is one of my favorite cities in the world. I also love Austrian cooking like this one with a glass of chilled gruner veltliner. Using cabbage in dishes always make me happy because it’s so nutritious and tasty. I am also posting a homemade fleckerl (egg noodle recipe) if you want to try making your own. Othwerwise, small square noodles or egg noodle work fine here.
My mother used to make this and she always referred to it as “tomatokraut.” It was, and is, one of my favorite side dishes. This usually yields about 3 quarts. To complete the meal, you can slice chunks of kielbasa or knockwurst into this towards the end to heat them through, and serve with plain boiled potatoes. Enjoy!
