CABBAGE BRAISED IN BEER
Mine is a variation of Emeril Lagasse's recipe and ever since I tried it, I've never made regular cabbage again. Don't just save it for St. Patrick's day, it's also great for New Year's Day parties or any time of year. Of course, you can omit the bacon and heavy cream and use olive oil and low fat milk instead for a healthier...

Steps:
- 1. Remove bruised and dirty outside leaves from the cabbage, and the stem then rinse well. Quarter, chop or shred the cabbage based on your preference. I like it coarsely chopped or quartered.
- 2. In a large soup pot, over medium heat, fry the bacon pieces until crisp. Remove bacon to a paper towel lined plate and set aside.
- 3. To the bacon drippings stir in the onions, celery, bell pepper and cook until the onions start to get soft, about 4 minutes. Stir to keep onions from getting brown. Add the garlic and cook another minute.
- 4. Reduce the heat to low, add the ham, cabbage, carrots and potatoes, salt & pepper, stir it all together, then pour syrup or honey over everything. Cover and cook for 3 minutes. Add the beer and cover, continue to cook on low for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. (If you like your cabbage shredded, it will cook quickly, so add it about 5-10 after adding the beer.)
- 5. Taste for seasoning and adjust as needed. Add the heavy cream, stir well, cover and cook for another 10 minutes. Crumble bacon and stir into cabbage. Taste again and adjust salt and pepper as needed. *Tip: If you like your cabbage very crisp, or very wilted, adjust your cooking time. For crisp cabbage add your potatoes and carrots with the sauteed vegetables to get them started. Enjoy!
SIMPLE BEER-BRAISED CABBAGE WITH BACON RECIPE - (4.2/5)
Provided by á-31592
Number Of Ingredients 5
Steps:
- Heat a large heavy pot or Dutch oven over medium. Add the bacon and cook until crisp, turning as needed, 5 to 6 minutes in all. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of the fat from the pan, then return it to medium heat. Add the onion and saute for 5 minutes, or until golden brown. Add the cabbage and toss occasionally in the pot for 3 or 4 minutes, or until the cabbage begins to wilt and is well mixed with the onions. Pour in the beer and bring to a simmer over medium-high. Partially cover the pot, reduce the heat to medium-low, then simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is tender and most of the liquid is evaporated. Crumble the reserved bacon and stir it into the cabbage. Serve hot or warm.
Tips:
- Choose the right cabbage. Use a firm, green cabbage for this recipe. Avoid wilted or brown-spotted cabbage.
- Slice the cabbage thinly. This will help it cook evenly and absorb the braising liquid.
- Use a good quality beer. The beer will add flavor to the cabbage, so use a beer that you enjoy drinking. A dark beer will give the cabbage a richer flavor, while a light beer will give it a more delicate flavor.
- Don't skimp on the onions. Onions add sweetness and depth of flavor to the dish.
- Cook the cabbage low and slow. This will help it become tender and flavorful. Cover the pot and simmer the cabbage for at least 1 hour, or until it is soft.
- Serve the cabbage hot. Braised cabbage is best served hot, so make sure to eat it as soon as it is cooked.
Conclusion:
Beer-braised cabbage is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish. It is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. The cabbage is tender and flavorful, and the beer adds a subtle sweetness and depth of flavor. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
