Green Apple Cider Recipes

GREEN CABBAGE BRAISED IN CIDER WITH APPLES

Steps:

• Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Blanch cabbage until just tender, about 2 minutes. Drain and set aside.
• Heat butter in a large straight-sided skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic, and cook until they begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Add cabbage, cider vinegar, apple cider, honey, salt, pepper, cloves, and allspice. Toss to coat. Cover, and simmer until very tender, about 40 minutes. While cabbage is cooking, core apples; cut into 3/4-inch pieces. Toss with lemon juice; set aside.
• Add apples and caraway seeds to pan; cook, uncovered, until apples begin to brown slightly, and most of the liquid has evaporated, about 10 minutes. Serve.
