1 quart chicken broth
Salt to taste

1/3 cup sugar, or to taste

Melt butter in a 3-quart Dutch oven over medium-low heat. Add cabbage or sauerkraut and cook, stirring occasionally, over medium heat until it begins to wilt, about 10 minutes.
Add all remaining ingredients. Raise heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium, cover partially, and simmer until cabbage is tender, about 30 minutes.
