Name: Tomato Cabbage (Tomaten Kohl)
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1 (2 lb) savoy cabbage or (2 lb) green cabbage; 1 -2 tablespoon rendered bacon fat; 1 (8 ounce) sweet onions; 1 (28 ounce) can petite diced tomatoes; 1 (29 ounce) can tomato sauce; 1 tablespoon cider vinegar or 1 tablespoon white balsamic vinegar; 1 teaspoon salt; 1/2 teaspoon white pepper; 1/2 tablespoon caraway seed; 1 teaspoon ground allspice

Servings: persons

1 (2 lb) savoy cabbage or (2 lb) green cabbage
1 -2 tablespoon rendered bacon fat
1 (8 ounce) sweet onions
1 (28 ounce) can petite diced tomatoes
1 (29 ounce) can tomato sauce
1 tablespoon cider vinegar or 1 tablespoon white balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
1/2 tablespoon caraway seed
1 teaspoon ground allspice

1
In a 4-quart pot, melt bacon fat and add chopped onions. Saute over low-medium heat until translucent, approximately 5 minutes.
2
Cut cabbage into one-inch by two-inch strips approximately. I cut the head into quarters, cut out the core, and then slice across the wedge.
3
Add chopped cabbage into pot, stirring to mix with the onions, adding a little more bacon fat if needed to coat the cabbage.
4
Sprinkle vinegar over cabbage in pot, then stir in salt, pepper, and caraway seed. Simmer until wilted, about 10 minutes, stirring once or twice.
5
Add tomatoes and tomato sauce when cabbage has wilted.
6
Stir in allspice. Adjust seasonings to taste. Sometimes I add a teaspoon or more of sugar to cut any bitter/acidic taste.
7
Cover and simmer for 30 to 40 minutes. Check after 20 minutes if you like it crisp-tender. I usually cook it 40 to 45 minutes so it's really tender.
8
For variety, increase the amount of and/or substitute different tomatoes -- crushed tomatoes, tomato puree, or tomato juice/V8. This makes it 'soupier,' and then we just serve it in cereal bowls or rice bowls on the side to enjoy every drop of the liquid!
