Braised Red Cabbage With Bacon, Pears and Pecans

"Vibrant red cabbage, tossed with hints of crunchy texture and sweet and salty flavour makes for a dynamic side dish. The vinegar in this recipe keeps the red cabbage from turning blue when cooked. To keep the cabbage crisp, choose a head of cabbage that feels heavy for its size and firm to the touch, with crisp, tightly packed leaves. Wrap securely in a plastic bag and store in the refrigerator for up to a week."
