Report

Red cabbage with apples is a classic Dutch side dish, often gracing the table in the colder months with its vibrant color and comforting warmth. This version takes the traditional recipe up a notch with the addition of dates. It’s a perfect blend of sweet and savory, making it an ideal accompaniment for any fall or winter feast.

Instructions

Remove the 2 outer leaves of the cabbage. Cut the cabbage in half and remove the harder white part (and stem if still attached). Slice thinly.
Add the juice, the cabbage and the cut onion to a pot, bring to a soft boil. Add the bay leaves, cinnamon stick and star anise.
Juice the oranges. Add water to the juice fill up 1 cup in total.
Cut the dates in small pieces and add. Stir.
Chop one onion I to small pieces.
Place the onion with the cloves on top. Wiggle and press it down until is covered.
The other onion stays in one piece, just remove the outer layer. Shove the cloves I to the onion. That way you do t have to search for them kater, and nobody will incidentally bite on them.
Led it simmer for 1 hour with the lid on.
If you have small, broken pieces of star anise: do the same. Whole or half stars can be found rather easily, no worries there.
Wash the apples and cut in pieces.
Remove the onion. Count the remaining cloves. If less then put in, not much harm us done, but best to warn your guests.
Add in the apples and stir. Let simmer for another 15 minutes.
Remove cinnamon stick and all the bay leaves and star anise you can find.
