EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

The slicing blade on a food processor does a quick job of shredding the cabbage. Cut the cabbage sections so they fit into the feed tube. To save time in the morning, slice the cabbage and chop the onion the night before, and refrigerate until needed.

Bone-in pork ribs also can be used.

Wonderful! Made this three times now. Family thought it smelled weird but has requested it the two previous times. Suggestions for prep: really spend time cutting the cabbage thin- cut both directions and watch for large white pieces that tend never to soften. I do use one and a half times the juice and vinegar (not extra sugar)to create good juices.
