Pickled Cabbage Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine all ingredients. Toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving.

Steps:

• Cut the first 2 inches off the top of the cabbage and use for something else.
• Trim away the base of the cabbage and cut the rest into about 2 inch slices. Put into a large bowl and add the remaining ingredients; mix well.
• Spoon into a preserving jar, seal and leave for 3 days in a cool place (pantry or refrigerator).
• This is a Thai dish to be used a a side dish with curries.

Steps:

• Place cabbage into a large bowl. Sprinkle with salt and mix to distribute. Let stand for 20 minutes, mixing with your hands every few minutes.
• Pour out excess salt water from the cabbage. Add vinegar and sugar; mix well. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 24 hours.

Steps:

• For the pickled cabbage: Combine the vegetables in a large bowl. In a medium saucepan, add the vinegar, water, spices, brown sugar and salt and bring to a boil. Pour the hot pickling liquid over the vegetables. Mix the ingredients well and let stand for at least 24 hours before serving, stirring occasionally. This mixture will keep for 2 to 3 weeks covered in the refrigerator.
• For the pork filling: Season the pork with the salt and pepper and place in a medium saucepan. Add enough water to cover by 2-inches, about 6 cups. Bring to a simmer and partially cover the pot; cook until the meat is very tender and almost all of the liquid has evaporated, about 3 hours. Uncover the pork and let it slightly pan fry in its own fat, stirring, until golden brown.
• Meanwhile, combine the tomatoes, onion, garlic, jalapeno, oregano and cinnamon in a blender. Puree until smooth. Add the tomato mixture to the pork in the saucepan and stir to loosen any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Lower the heat and simmer for another 30 minutes, or until pork is falling apart and most of the liquid has reduced from the sauce. The pork mixture should be very thick. Set aside to cool while you prepare the masa dough. (This will yield more pork than you need for this recipe but any leftover can be frozen and/or used in other recipes. It makes a great filling for tacos, burritos, quesadillas or enchiladas and also works well as a sandwich filling when mixed with a tangy barbecue sauce.)
• For the dough: In a bowl, combine the masa harina with the warm water and salt mix until soft dough forms. Let stand for 20 to 30 minutes. Stir in up to a 1/4 cup of cold water, until the dough become soft but not sticky. Divide the dough into 16 golf ball size pieces. Keep the dough covered as you work.
• To form a pupusa: Rub the palm of your hands with a little olive oil. While holding of the dough balls in 1 hand, press the thumb of the other hand in the middle of the ball of dough to form an indentation, then turning the dough, begin to flatten it with your fingertips into a 4-inch concave disk resembling a small bowl. In the center of the disk add 2 tablespoons of the pork and 1/2 tablespoon of the shredded cheese. Bring the edges of the dough together over the filling and squeeze to form a seal. Working gently, press the dough into a flattened disk, flattening the dough middle and edges to form a thick pancake shape about 4-inches in diameter. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.
• Lightly rub the pupusas with oil and place them on a heated, greased griddle over medium-high heat. Cook each side until golden brown in spots and slightly puffy, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Serve hot, with a serving of the pickled cabbage on the side.

Steps:

• Cut the top off Chinese cabbage and reserve for another use. Trim the base of the cabbage, discard, and then cut the remaining cabbage into 2-inch slices. Place cabbage slices in a bowl and add garlic, chilies, sugar and salt. Stir to combine. Spoon or pour into a jar and seal. Let sit in the refrigerator for 3 days.

Steps:

• Grate or shred cabbage into very thin slivers.
• Place cabbage in a porcelain bowl.
• Add 1/2 cup of olive oil.
• Add 1/4 cup of Apple cider vinegar (I like the organic one).
• Add 2 to 3 tablespoon of raw honey.
• Toss and mix everything together and add salt & pepper to taste.
• Store in glass jar(s). Keeps fresh for a long time.
• The ratio can be adjusted to your taste. If you like it more tart, add more vinegar and so on.

Steps:

• Put the cabbage in a large heatproof bowl. Put the onion in a saucepan with the vinegar, sugar and juniper berries. Heat until the mixture is boiling and the onion is starting to soften, around 10 mins. Add the mixture to the cabbage, stir well and leave to cool completely. Chill until needed.

Steps:

• Place the shredded cabbage in a colander over the sink and sprinkle with salt. Leave for 2-3 hours, then drain and wash away the salt. Pay dry with a clean tea towel.
• Put the vinegar, wine, sugar, peppercorns and bay leaves into a big, wide saucepan and simmer until the liquid has reduced by about half. Set aside for 10 mins to infuse.
• Strain through a fine sieve into a jug or bowl, and discard the peppercorns and bay leaves. Put the cabbage and mustard seeds into a big bowl, and then pour the strained liquid over. Transfer the cabbage and pickling liquid into sterilised jars and seal. Will last for a month in the fridge.

Steps:

• Finely slice red cabbage, preferably with a mandoline. Place cabbage in a bowl, and add salt and vinegar. Using your hands to mix thoroughly, squeeze cabbage until it begins to wilt and get juicy. Let stand for 30 minutes. Adjust seasonings to taste. Add a little extra salt and vinegar if you are planning on serving the cabbage the following day, since the flavor fades as it marinates.
