Ingredients

  • 1 head Cabbage I used 2 small heads of green and purple
  • ½ pound bacon
  • 1 medium onion chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic chopped
  • 4 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1-2 teaspoons Ancho Chili Powder optional...or to taste
  • 1 teaspoon celery seed
  • Salt and Pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Slice cabbage into 1/4-1/2" strips. We used 6mm blade on the Cuisinart. Put into bowl.
  • Cut bacon into pieces and put into a large pot. Cook until fat has rendered and the bacon is starting to crisp up.
  • Add onion and saute for 5 minutes. Add chopped garlic and saute until onions are soft but not caramelized, approximately 3 more minutes.
  • Add vinegar, sugar, mustard, chili powder, celery seed, salt and pepper to pan and mix well. Add cabbage, toss well and cook for 5-7 minutes til desired tenderness. I like mine with just a bit of crunch, but you can cook it until it suits your taste.
  • Taste and adjust salt and pepper if necessary.
  • Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

This is a great dish for group events, no need to keep cold!
