Instructions: Remove any tough bruised outer leaves. Cut cabbage in quarters, remove core,and shred very thinly, using either a slaw slicer or a large heavy knife. Soak cabbage in cold water for a few minutes.

Dice onion and grate apple.

Heat butter in a large heavy pot and saute onions until soft, about 5 minutes. Drain cabbage and add with apple and raisins.

Mix vinegar, sugar, salt, and a generous amount of pepper and pour over cabbage. Cover pot and cook slowly over low heat until cabbage is tender (25 to 40 minutes, depending upon age of cabbage). Drain and serve in a heated serving dish.

Serve as a vegetable with grilled or roast meats and game.
