• Add broth (I usually add a bit of sherry, too) and bring to boil, cover and simmer over medium-low heat, stirring often, for about 15 minutes or until cabbage is tender.
• Raise heat to medium, uncover and let juices reduce to about half (be careful not to let burn).
• Taste and adjust seasoning, serve hot.

Add cabbage; cover and cook 10 minutes. Uncover, increase heat to high, and cook, stirring often, until cabbage is wilted and tender, about 10 additional minutes.

Steps:

• In a large, deep skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Saute onions in the butter for about 5 minutes or until softening.
• To the skillet, add the crushed tomatoes, vinegar, sugar, garlic, salt, pepper, oregano and clery seeds; stir well and bring to just a soft boil.
• Place chopped cabbage on top (the skillet will be full, but the cabbage will wilt down); reduce heat to medium-low, cover tightly and simmer for 15 minutes.
• Remove lid and stir. Replace lid and simmer for an additional 20-25 minutes, (stirring once halfway through) or until desired tenderness is reached. If it appears to drying, just add a little water/broth.
• Turn off heat. Stir in the cream cheese; heat through and serve.
• ***For Crockpot: Put everthing in the crockpot EXCEPT the cream cheese. Cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for about 3 hours (depends on how tender you like your cabbage). When done, stir in the cream cheese.

Steps:

• Combine water, ham hock, and pork shank in a large pot. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until meat is cooked through, about 2 hours. Drain and set meat aside to cool to room temperature, about 20 minutes.

Add 1/4 of the meat mixture. Add another 1/4 of the cabbage, cooking until slightly wilted, about 3 minutes, followed by another 1/4 of the meat mixture. Repeat until all cabbage and meat have been added. Season with salt and pepper. If mixture sticks to the skillet, add 1 to 2 tablespoons chicken broth.
