The sweet and sour flavor notes of the braised red cabbage match perfectly with an earthy main course item such as a roast chicken or a braised beef item. When using wine in cooking always use a wine that you would enjoy drinking with the meal.

Why Try? Red cabbage is an inexpensive and underused vegetable, so this simple yet flavorful dish will be sure to impress.
