I've made this twice...the first time I used the full TB of salt and it was SOOO salty, but also addictingly good.  But then the thirsty bloated feeling hit :(  The 2nd time I made it I halved the salt and it wasn't nearly as delicious, but I felt fine after eating it  :P

I thought this was pretty good. I'm from the South (TX), but we never had cabbage this way...nonetheless, it was an ok way to have it. I didn't measure anything....and actually forgot to add the nutmeg. I did add the sugar...but I don't think it was that much (I used less cabbage). It was a nice side dish for our meal, though.

This was awesome!  I thought it smelled weired after I added the vinegar but when I tasted it, oh man it was great.  I made this with cornbread, BBQ tofu and green beans.  It was the best dinner I had in a long time.  Funny thing is DH came home from work not feeling well so I got to each as much as I wanted.  I couldn't eat all of it so I'm heating up more for lunch.  This is something you have to try!!!

This recipe is great.  Healthy, quick and tasty. I  experimented and a can of black beans and let it simmer for about 8 minutes. Also, I did the same with canned black-eye peas. I rinsed and drained both black beans and black-eye peas respectively.  I love this . Excellent ;D

This is GOOD!!!  Amazing how sweet cabbage and onions can be if you let them cook long enough.  It was so sweet on its own that there was no need to add any sugar.  Served with black beans, mashed potatoes, biscuits, and peas.  Will definitely make again.
