Retro Food Fiascos: A Collection of Curious Concoctions (Retro Series)

Servings:	4
Author Notes:	The book contains a hilarious collection of classic 50s recipes, like this one!
Ingredients:	1 1/2 pounds all-beef frankfurters 1 teaspoon poppy seeds 2 tablespoons cider vinegar 2 cups cabbage, shredded 1/2 cup boiling water pimiento for garnish
Instructions:	Preheat oven to 350 F. Slice the frankfurters lengthwise without separating the halves. Broil (cut sides up) on a rack about 3 inches from the heat for about 5 minutes. Add poppy seeds and vinegar to cabbage; toss thoroughly. Heap cabbage in a mound in the center of a baking dish. Lean frankfurters against cabbage to form a crown. Pin frankfurters together with toothpicks. Pour water over cabbage. Bake for 10 minutes or until cabbage is tender but still crisp. Garnish with pimiento.
