4 servings
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 small head red cabbage (about 2 lb), cored and thinly sliced
Ingredient noteFermented cabbage is very high in histamine, but fresh cabbage is not. If you prefer to always avoid red cabbage, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 2 medium tart apples (such as granny smith), peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
- 3 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp honey
- ½ cup water
- ½ tsp ground ceylon cinnamon
Ingredient noteSome low histamine plans avoid cinnamon, but cinnamon doesn't actually contain histamine. This recipe only uses about 1/8 teaspoon per serving. If you prefer to always avoid true ceylon cinnamon, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- ¼ tsp ground ginger
Ingredient noteSmall amounts of ground ginger are often well-tolerated on a low histamine diet. This recipe uses only a very small amount of ground ginger per serving. If you prefer to always avoid ground ginger, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 1 tsp salt, plus more to taste
- 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Melt the coconut oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat until shimmering.
- 2
Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 5–6 minutes.
