Braised Purple Cabbage with Apples

I like this dish with a hint of sweetness so the seasoning here is perfect for me. I would imagine that you could replace half the water with apple juice or cider if you want it sweeter.

Ingredients

2 tbsp. butter
1 large red onion, sliced into thin crescents
2 tsp. brown sugar
1 tsp. caraway seeds
1 tsp. kosher salt
Freshly ground pepper
¾ cup water
3 tbsp. cider vinegar
1 head purple cabbage (about 2 pounds), sliced into ½-inch strips
1 large firm apple, peeled and sliced ¼-inch thick

Instructions

In a wide heavy sauté pan over medium heat, melt the butter.  Add the onions, brown sugar, caraway seeds, salt, and a few grinds of pepper.  Sauté the mixture, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 7 minutes, until softened.

Add the water, vinegar, cabbage, and apple.  Raise the heat and bring to a boil.  Cover, reduce the heat to low, and braise for 25 to 30 minutes.  Uncover and cook over high heat for a few minutes until the juices have reduced.  Season the dish to taste with salt and pepper.

Desserts: Almost-Guilt-Free Strawberry Shortcakes

Almost Guilt Free Strawberry Shortcakes

By The Food Gal
WebMD Recipe from Foodily.com

 

Picture of Almost-Guilt-Free Strawberry ShortcakesInstead of the usual calorie-laden whipped cream filling, we’ve used thick, nonfat Greek yogurt in its place. Yes, the shortcakes still have some cream and butter in the dough. There’s not much getting around that. But yogurt is packed with active cultures that reportedly aid digestion and boost the immune system. And fresh fruit always does a body good. We’ve added just the tiniest drizzle of honey to mellow the tartness of the Greek yogurt. You also can stir in a tad with the sliced strawberries, if the fruit is not sweet enough.

Ingredients

For shortcakes

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 stick cold, unsalted butter, cubed
1/2 cup heavy cream (can substitute with low-fat heavy cream)
1/3 cup plain yogurt
Heavy cream, for brushing on top
Sanding or granulated sugar, for sprinkling on top

For filling

2 1/2 to 3 pints fresh strawberries, rinsed, hulled, and sliced
1 tablespoon chopped crystallized ginger, or to taste (optional)
Honey, to taste
Nonfat Greek yogurt

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425 degrees; line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl. Cut butter into flour mixture using a pastry blender until butter is size of peas. Stir cream and yogurt together in a second bowl, add to flour mixture, and blend with a fork just until dough comes together.

Pat out dough on a lightly floured surface into a circle about 1-inch thick. Using a 2 1/2-inch round cutter, cut out as many shortcakes as possible and place them on prepared baking sheet. Gently press scraps into a 1-inch-thick circle and cut remaining biscuits. (Note: Avoid twisting the cutter into the dough. That will seal the sides and prevent the shortcakes from rising as high as they should.)

Brush with cream and sprinkle with sugar. Bake until golden, about 15 minutes.

In a bowl, mix strawberries with crystallized ginger, and a little bit of honey, if you like. Stir a little honey into the Greek yogurt, as well. When shortcakes are cool enough to handle, split each one in half horizontally. On each bottom half, spoon a small dollop of yogurt, then top with strawberry mixture; repeat with a little more yogurt, then more strawberries. Replace the tops of each shortcake, and serve.
