Steam Slaw recipe

[Guest guest]

Hi everybody

 

My grandmother used to make a dish called Steam Slaw.

It had cabbage, sweet vingar, onions and some other ingredients

that I can't remember. Does this sound familar to anyone? I would love

to know how it was made.

I modified a recipe from an old Betty Crocker Cookbook that sounds like

something you would like.

 

 

 

One medium head red cabbage (shredded or chopped fine)

 

¼ cup water in pot

 

 

 

2 tablespoons whole wheat flour

 

¼ cup water in small jar with lid

 

¼ cup vinegar or lemon juice

 

¼ cup raw sugar or barley malt

 

Dash of salt

 

Dash of pepper

 

1 teaspoon whole fennel seeds

 

 

 

Using a large cooking pot and lid…

 

Put ¼ cup water into pot, add cabbage and steam over med.high for 5 minutes

or until rather tender.

 

 

 

During that 5 minutes..

 

Use a glass jar to shake 1/4 cold water with the 2 T flour. Mix well.

 

Pour all the remaining ingredients together with the cooked cabbage and

simmer 3 minutes stirring to avoid lumps.

 

 

 

I like it hot or cold. Travels well as a lunch too.

 

(You might sauté a sliced onion until tender in the big pot prior to adding

the cabbage)
