Chef's Notes
Red cabbage loves acid, so do not shy away from that cider vinegar. It is the secret weapon that keeps that vibrant jewel-toned color popping instead of turning a sad, muddy gray.
Pro Tip
Grating your apple directly over the pot ensures you capture every single drop of that sweet, natural juice. Also, slice your cabbage as thin as humanly possible for the best tender-crisp texture.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Forgetting to switch your pressure valve to the sealing position and walking away for 15 minutes, only to return to a room full of unpressurized sadness and raw, crunchy cabbage.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
I suppose if you call this 'German Red Cabbage,' the royal chef is legally obligated to serve it with a very serious expression.
The Culinary Science
Anthocyanins, the water-soluble pigments that give red cabbage its gorgeous purple hue, act as natural pH indicators. The cider vinegar increases acidity, locking in that brilliant red color.
