GERMAN BRAISED PORK & CABBAGE - SCHWEINEFLEISCH UND KOHL

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a 4- to 6-quart Dutch oven . Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, then add the thinly sliced cabbage and stir to coat with the fat.
• Place 1 bay leaf, 3 juniper berries, 3 whole cloves, and 10 peppercorns in the middle of a square of cheesecloth. Tie it into a bundle with butcher's twine and place on top of the cabbage (or throw them in loose, if you do not mind).
• Add 1 teaspoon salt, 1 tablespoon cider vinegar and 2 cups dry white wine and bring to a boil.
• Lay the pork on top of the cabbage, cover with a tight-fitting lid and reduce heat.
• Simmer for three hours, or until meat is tender and easy to cut.
• Remove meat to a platter and keep warm.
• To finish the cabbage, you have several choices. You might want to cook down the liquid, then thicken it by adding 1 to 2 tablespoons of flour made into a slurry with part of the liquid and cooking it until thick. Another option is to add a few tablespoons of sour cream to the cabbage (do not boil afterward).
• Season to taste with salt, pepper, mustard and maybe a pinch of sugar.
• Serve the pork and cabbage with potatoes, mashed or boiled, and mashed fresh peas (without mint).
