I was searching for this recipe for a few months, I had made it before in culinary school and loved it sooo much. I made a few changed: I used apple cider vinegar, plus more of it, I also used brown sugar rather than the white. I did however cook the cabbage a little too long, I would have liked a more firm texture and the apples lost their texture as well. Otherwise this is a nice dish, a little different and a pleasant change from corn or green beans!

This recipe came the closest to the Rotkraut we had in Leavenworth, Washington. Instead of apples I used applesauce so the flavor blended more evenly through the cabbage. It brought back a lot of happy vacation memories!

I don't see how the recipe is supposed to make only two to three servings of this delicious side dish with 8 cups of cabbage! I use 4 cups of cabbage, leave the amounts of the other ingredients the same, omit the onion, substitute cloves for the salt and pepper (the authentic German way to season this dish), and easily get four to six servings. For even easier preparation, just throw everything into a large pot (no preliminary sauteeing of the cabbage neccesary), cover, and cook until cabbage is tender, about 20 minutes. Remove lid and cook until the liquid is almost all evaporated, about 10 minutes more. It couldn't be easier or more tasty!

This was better than I've had in many German Restaurants. My husband thought he had "gone to heaven." He said it didn't get any better.

This was a very delicious recipe. I presteamed my cabbage. When it was time to prepare the rest of the dish I simply sauted the onions and apples 10-15min then added everything else. it was done after about 5 min. of simmer time! I also substituted with the brown sugar and cider vinegar.

I'd had Red Cabbage with Apples in a German restaurant and really loved it. This recipe was so close to it and really good. I did add about 1 c. of sweetened applesauce to it, instead of the apples. Then I reduced the sugar to 2 T. and increased the vinegar to 4 T. Delicious!

This was an easy, quick and really tasty recipe. I substituted 3 strips of bacon in lieu of the oil and also used apple sauce instead of apples. I wish I would have made a double batch!

I have made this several times and it is wonderful. This time I used bacon drippings instead of the oil and it was better yet!

We really enjoyed this different dish. And easy enough to make. I used another reviewers suggestion and used apple cider vinegar (instead of white) and brown sugar (instead of white).
