RED CABBAGE WITH CHESTNUTS



Red Cabbage with Chestnuts image

This is one of my favorite winter Alsatian vegetable combinations, and a common winter vegetable dish of French Jews. It is best made a day in advance and left to meld the flavors. Serve as an accompaniment to roast goose, chicken, or duck.

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 large onions, diced
3 tablespoons rendered goose fat or vegetable oil
1 red cabbage, about 3 pounds, the white core removed and the cabbage shredded
2 cups dry red wine, such as Côtes du Rhône
1 clove
1 bay leaf
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
2 apples, such as Fuji or Gala, peeled, cored, and grated
1 pound canned, bottled, or fresh peeled chestnuts (see note to preceding recipe)
1 tablespoon red-wine or sherry-wine vinegar

Steps:

  • Sauté the onions in the goose fat or vegetable oil in a large casserole or Dutch oven for about 5 minutes, or until translucent. Add the cabbage, sauté for a few minutes, and then stir in the wine.
  • Add the clove, the bay leaf, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes.
  • Stir in the apples, cover, and let cook for another 45 minutes. Finally, add the chestnuts, and cook for 15 more minutes. Just before serving, fish out the bay leaf and stir in the vinegar. Adjust seasonings to taste.

Categories     side dish

Time 2h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound chestnuts
1 head red cabbage
1/4 pound lean, unsliced bacon
1 medium onion
2 greening or Granny Smith apples
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 bay leaves
1 clove garlic, crushed
1/2 cup full-bodied red wine (cabernet sauvignon is a good choice)
2 1/2 cups beef stock
2 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  • Bring a saucepan of water to the boil. Score the chestnuts and drop them into the boiling water. Let simmer 2 minutes. Turn off heat and leave chestnuts in the water. Extract 2 or 3 at a time and peel them, carefully removing the inner skin that clings to the nutmeats. If the process becomes too difficult, bring the water to the boil again to help loosen the skins. When all the chestnuts are peeled, set aside.
  • Cut the cabbage in quarters, remove any wilted leaves, cut out the core and slice each quarter approximately 1/4 inch thick. Set aside.
  • Remove rind from bacon. Cut into lardons and fry gently until the bacon bits are brown and crisp. Drain the bacon bits and set aside.
  • Chop the onion coarsely and saute in the bacon fat until it starts to brown. Set aside.
  • Peel and core the apples and cut into chunks.
  • In a medium-sized casserole dish, arrange the cabbage, bacon, onion, apples and chestnuts. Bury the bay leaves and the crushed clove of garlic in the center. Sprinkle with freshly ground pepper. Add the wine.
  • Bring the broth to a boil in a separate saucepan and pour broth over the cabbage mixture. Cover the dish with aluminum foil and place in preheated oven. Bake for 1 hour. Remove foil and if there is still a lot of liquid in the dish, raise heat to 400 degrees. Continue baking for another 30 minutes until the top starts to brown. Remove the bay leaves. Serve immediately.
