  2. Whisk remaining 1/4 cup water and flour together in a small bowl and gradually add to cabbage mixture. Continue to simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper.

Recipe Note

Very tender, very flavorful vegetable side. Based on this recipe, seems like Army cooks don't think much of cabbage.
