Background

This braised spiced red cabbage with plums goes particularly well with roasted duck and goose, but you can serve it with other poultry, games or pork too. It’s perfect for Thanksgiving, Christmas or other festive meals during the winter months.

2 cm piece ginger
1 star anise
1 cinnamon stick
½ cup rice vinegar
