Ranked by TableJourney editorial score.
Silesian red cabbage stewed with apples, onion, caraway and a little smoked bacon. The third leg of the canonical Silesian Sunday plate beside rolada śląska and kluski śląskie.
Modra kapusta (literally 'blue cabbage', the Silesian name for red cabbage) inherits the German-Silesian tradition of long-stewed cabbage with sour apples and warming spice. The Silesian version leans more sweet-sour than the Bohemian version, and includes a final shot of vinegar to brighten the close.
