_____________________________________________________________
Yet another Wegman's Menu magazine recipe that's totally amazing. This is very Italian, but unlike anything else we make - hard to imagine. The sweetness of the sauce, cut with the acidic vinegar and slightly bitter cabbage is AMAZING. Served over egg noodles with a bit of butter you could take over small nations with this recipe. And the house smells wonderful all day! Fantastic :)
Difficulty: Easy
Chopping: Cabbage, onions
Time: 20 minutes to prep, 10 hours to cook
Make ahead: Yep.
Reaction:
"Really, this would work better than WMDs."
The kid report:
Totally enthralled - especially with the sausage and the raisins, but in general very positive responses.
