3:47 - "nobody wants mushy cabbage at the end of the day" and proceeds to cook it for one hour until it turns into a fine mush 🤣

[@frankdsouza2425]

Such DETAILED Instructions are precisely what Dopes like me,- there are plenty of us, need. Great job, Waitrose.

[@roslyntucker4741]

Love it!! You’re right I’m one of the plenty! That needed this lovely uncomplicated recipe

[@roslyntucker4741]

I’m in awe finding this Waitrose cooks recipe. It’s not complicated or over the top. It’s perfect!! I shopped at my local Waitrose early this morning. found a lovely red cabbage, a couple of cooking apples and red wine vinegar. All set for tomorrow cheers 🥂 everyone

Thank you never knew how to cook this

[@zumieskitchen730]

Looks yummy nice sharing

[@corryjookit7818]

I use Juniper Berries and a pinch of cloves, and it is delicious.

[@royalbloodedledgend]

Thank you Waitrose for this informative video. I’ll get all the ingredients at M&S

I lived in Hedgesville WV for 3 years. Lovely friendly people for the most part

[@dominicpaul8539]

I'm making this!!

Let us know how you get on! Happy cooking! Courtney

Thanks for another great video. Just wanted to suggest to you to not put the orange border in your thumbnails. It looks quite similar to when KZbin puts a red border on the thumbnail to show users that they’ve already watched the video. I’ve skipped a few of your new videos because at first because I thought I had watched them already.

[@waitroseandpartners]

Thanks so much for your feedback!

[@fangwang5673]

Do you have the receipt?

[@fidybeanbird]

My red cabbage is so bitter. Would cooking it make it not bitter?

[@robertfarnsworth3706]

Could you please give a suggestion of an alternative to the vinegar. I cannot do vinegar. Thank you.

[@darkheartlightsoul]

why not?

[@robertfarnsworth3706]

@@darkheartlightsoul The only foodstuff I simply cannot bare. Makes my skin crawl and retch from the very bottom of my colon.

[@30pinkpumpkin]

Perhaps red wine as an alternative. Lots of people can't bare vinegar of any sort. My husband is one!!

[@pennyh4021]

What could I sub the red currant jelly with? Not available in my country. Thank you.

[@DjayTriple8]

Any jelly...

[@30pinkpumpkin]

@@DjayTriple8 Of course you can't use any jelly. Red currant jelly is a sauce/condiment you have with poultry.

[@jessicaexplores]

I’ve added cranberry sauce I have and I was happy with it!

[@30pinkpumpkin]

@@jessicaexplores A good alternative.

[@giridharraju345]

What spice?

[@bookbakery]

What kind of apple is a cooking apple?

[@waitroseandpartners]

Hi, in this case, we've used a Bramley apple. ^Alan

[@e2pierce]

What can you substitute for red currant jelly? In the US.

[@waitroseandpartners]

If you're in the US then grape jelly makes a great alternative! Happy cooking!

[@KM-wv2og]

Hi everyone please try replacing the sugar with fresh figs❤❤❤

[@zhangruyi3153]

Imagine I cannot even find cooking apples from Waitrose for online delivery!

[@AmericanSCPO]

Hate apple and sugar in red cabbage. My mom was definitely from the part of Germany that didn't eat sweet red cabbage.

[@iamhungry4000]

Not gonna lie, I appreciate the video, think the lady presents well too, but confused how adding something acidic helps prevent something from breaking down.

[@darkheartlightsoul]

leave it to cook for an hour on medium-low heat? lmao

[@RoelNicky]

needs at least 3 more apples ... the recipe calls for 1 KILO of apples, not jut 1 apple...

[@malindsell]

Sugar? That’s just about ruinous if you’re diabetic, and adds an unnecessary, unhealthy element to an otherwise healthy, delicious vegetable. Just leave it out. Tastes just as good.

[@DjayTriple8]

Sugar is used in a lot of onion related dishes.. if you ever eat caramelized onions.. anything pickled... etc it has sugar.

[@aaronstorey5593]

Braised red Cabbage is a sweet and sour dish needs sugar. You can decide how much to put in

[@ilpostino88]

Agreed- the dish needs zero sugar

[@drodevil102]

Or...move on

[@Mspowell30]

This is the dishes point if you don’t like it don’t watch it or move on or leave it out
