Directions

Shred, or chop coarsely, the heart of the cabbage.
Keep the green outside leaves for a soup.
Fry, quickly, an onion in 1 tablespoonful of butter in a saucepan.
Add the shredded cabbage, mix well and moisten with vinegar and water.
Cover with a lid, and simmer over a gentle heat for 2 hours.
At the end of this time, the liquid should be almost completely gone.
Melt 1 tablespoonful of butter, stir in the flour, and dissolve it into the cabbage at the same time as the sugar.
Simmer for another 10 minutes, then serve.
