This simple combination of two classic German ingredients pair together like yin and yang. A streak of lemon juice cuts through this dish without being obvious, while deliciously balancing the flavors of smoky bacon and sweet cabbage.

Ingredients

Serves:

    • 1 2 1/2-pound cabbage
    • 6 slices bacon, coarsely chopped
    • 2 cloves garlic, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
    • 1/2 cup water
    • 1 teaspoon sugar
    • 1/4 teaspoon salt
    • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
    • 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

Directions

Quarter cabbage, then core and cut into large pieces (about 2-by 3-inch; about 14 cups).

Cook bacon in heavy cold 12-inch skillet over medium heat until it begins to sizzle, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until bacon is browned, about 3 minutes. Stir in cabbage and remaining ingredients and cook covered, stirring occasionally, until cabbage softens, about 8 minutes. Season to taste and transfer to a serving dish.

Made this for my family and a double batch for block party. It was a big hit both times.
