Danish Wilted Cabbage Salad With Bacon

This is a wonderful way to serve cabbage. Without the sour cream, this is called a French cabbage salad. Skip the garlic, use cider vinegar, and it becomes a German cabbage salad.

    This really is a wonderful way to serve cabbage. I thought I was going to have to add some sugar, but I was wrong. The sour cream tamed the tarragon vinegar perfectly. Great hot or at room temperature. I'll make this again. Thanx for posting.

    Very good. I had not had it with the sour cream, as the recipe I had was from some Cajun friends of mine. So your statement that it is French w/o the sour cream makes sense. Thanks!

    Thanks Elmotoo! I served this with a baked corned beef brisket and it was a really nice change from the traditional boiled cabbage and carrots typically served with corned beef brisket. The sour cream and bacon is a surprise and a treat in this dish. Dugan grunted and snorted after every bite. He is very picky about cabbage but has already asked, "when ya goin' ta make dis agin"? Soon, dear. Now wipe the sour cream off of your face. He is such a beast.
