Norwegian Christmas Cabbage is essentially a kind of sweet and sour sauerkraut, spiced with caraway seeds.

Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 slices bacon
1 large head cabbage, cored and shredded
¼ cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon caraway seed
1 pinch salt and pepper to taste
½ cup white vinegar, or to taste
½ cup white sugar, or to taste

Steps:

  • Lay two slices of bacon across the bottom of a large pot. Cover with a layer of cabbage. Sprinkle a light dusting of flour and a pinch of caraway seed. Season with a little salt and pepper. Repeat layering as many times as possible until you run out of room.
  • Fill the pot with enough water to come about 3/4 up the side. Bring to a boil, and cook for about 45 minutes, or until the cabbage is soft, stirring occasionally. Let cool slightly, then stir in the vinegar and sugar. Use your own judgment. Add sugar carefully to taste. The idea is to strike a balance between the sweet and the sour, and therein lies the trick.

This recipe is a waste of time. The cabbage was tough and the sauce was watery. I do not recommend this recipe.

I was so excited to try this recipe, but I was disappointed with the results. The cabbage was overcooked and the sauce was too bland. I won't be making this recipe again.
