Red Cabbage Sauerkraut

makes 1 jar 

1/4 head red cabbage (shaved or thinly sliced)

3 cloves garlic (minced)

1 tsp whole caraway seeds

1 tsp yellow mustard seeds

1/2 cup apple cider vinegar

salt and pepper

olive oil

Shave the 1/4 head of cabbage with a mandolin. If you don't have a mandolin, cut the cabbage into really thin strips, like sauerkraut or coleslaw. 

In a medium sauce pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic and cook for 2 minutes. Add cabbage, caraway seeds, mustard seeds, vinegar, salt and pepper. Mix to combine and lower heat to low. Cook for 10 minutes. Remove from heat. The sauerkraut can either be served warm or chilled on your favorite brats and dogs.
