1 head red cabbage
1 onion, finely chopped
1 c. beef consomme
1 bay leaf
2 apples, peeled and finely chopped
2 Tbsp. bacon drippings
2 carrots, finely chopped
1 c. red wine

Directions

1

Remove outer cabbage leaves and core. Cut the cabbage into quarters and then into medium-fine slices as you would for slaw. In a large saucepan, heat the bacon drippings and add the onion and carrots. Saute approximately 3 minutes.
2

Add the cabbage and toss well so that it's lightly coated with bacon fat.
3

Mix in consomme, wine, bay leaf, apples, vinegar and salt and pepper to taste.
4

Stir well and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Serve in individual preheated side dishes.
