Western Cabbage
Take 4 or 5 cups of shredded white cabbage and put in a frying pan in which 1 tablespoon of butter has been melted. Press the cabbage into the pan, dredge with salt and pepper, and pour over it ½ cup of vinegar and ½ cup of water; cover and let cook very gently for half an hour or somewhat less.
Red cabbage can be prepared in this same way, and a pretty dish is made by using equal quantities of red and white cabbage.
