C. D. was the father of the famous Langhorne sisters, including Nancy, Lady Astor. He contributed this to a cookbook called Key to the Pantry which was published in Danvllle, VA in 1898. Taken from Virginia Cookery Past and Present Cooking time is a guess on my part.
Ingredients:
1 cabbage
1 red pepper
bacon, several slices
2 cups boiling water
Directions:
1. Take a cabbage, wash well, and cut up into pieces about the size of your hand.
2. Put them into the boiling water, or maybe a little more if your cabbage is a big one, along with 5-6 slices bacon.
3. Add a pod of red pepper, cover, and cook slowly until done.
4. This will never disagree with you.
