RED CABBAGE WITH APPLES (ROT KRAUT MIT ÄPFELN)



Red Cabbage With Apples (Rot Kraut Mit Äpfeln) image

For 100 years, Lüchow's was NYC's landmark German restaurant; it closed in 1982. This recipe is from "Lüchow's German Cookbook" (1952). My ancestors immigrated to the U.S. from Germany, and settled in Brooklyn and Queens. When I was a child, for special occasions my grandmother would make Sauerbraten served with with dumplings and a red cabbage like this. The sweet-sour taste, the deep red color - these had special appeal to me as a child. This is my comfort food - to this day it conjures happy forty-year-old memories of sitting in my grandmother's crowded kitchen on a festive Sunday afternoon.

ROTKRAUT



Rotkraut image

This recipe for rotkraut, a tart dish of pickled red cabbage simmered with warm spices in a dry red wine, came to The Times from Debbie Himmler of Cincinnati. The dish, a nod to her grandparents' German heritage, makes regular appearances on her family's Thanksgiving table, but can be served year round. It's best prepared a day or two ahead, and also freezes well - a real boon if you're planning a big meal. Just reheat it in a covered saucepan on the stove the day you plan to serve it.
