Rotkraut, commonly known as red cabbage, is a classic dish in German and Central European cuisine. Typically made by braising shredded red cabbage with vinegar, sugar, and aromatic spices like cloves or bay leaves, it can also include additions like apples for a touch of sweetness. This vibrant, tangy side pairs excellently with hearty meals like sausages, roasted meats, or potato dumplings. From a nutritional standpoint, Rotkraut is packed with antioxidants such as anthocyanins, which give red cabbage its striking color and are linked to reducing inflammation. It’s also a source of vitamin C and fiber, supporting immune function and digestion. While Rotkraut is relatively low in calories, the sugar content in traditional recipes might be a consideration for those monitoring their intake. With its combination of rich flavor and nutritional benefits, Rotkraut remains a staple in many homes and a delightful way to enjoy red cabbage.
