The Germans eat pork and sauerkraut on New Year’s day for good luck. Our family always had cabbage instead. This dish has mild hint of sour, so somewhere in the middle.
Charring cabbage adds a wonderful flavour and really takes it up a level. In my opinion you should always char cabbage, especially on the grill.
