Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400ðF (200ðC).
  2. In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt 1/4 cup of butter over medium heat.
  3. Add the chopped onions and sauté until golden and softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Stir in the sliced carrots, diced potatoes, chopped cabbage, cooked diced pork, chicken broth, aromatic bitters, and caraway seeds.
  5. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then cover the pot.
  6. Cook for about 30 minutes, or until the cabbage and vegetables are tender.
  7. Remove from heat and season with salt and white pepper to taste.
  8. While the filling cooks, prepare your pastry dough by mixing in the caraway seeds if not already included.
  9. Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface to a 1/8-inch thickness.
  10. Cut the dough into six 6-inch circles.
  11. Divide the hot filling equally among six 5-inch pie pans.
  12. Place a pastry circle over each pan, allowing the pastry to hang over the edges by about 1/2 inch.
  13. Crimp the edges to seal, then cut a cross in the center of each top crust.
  14. Pull back the pastry points of the cross to open the tops of the pies.
  15. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  16. Let cool for a few minutes before serving.
