instructions
1. Melt the butter in a large saute; pan over medium-high heat. When the foam subsides, add the onions and a generous sprinkling of salt and pepper, and cook 2 minutes. Stir in the paprika and cook, stirring occasionally, until the paprika toasts and smells good, 3-5 minutes.
2. Add the cabbage, vinegar and wine and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage softens, 15-20 minutes. Add a generous amount of fresh ground black pepper, plus salt to taste.
