Rhinelander Beans is a popular mid-western recipe in the United States, particularly in Wisconsin. The combination of sweet and tangy flavours provides a taste that appeals to many. The recipe is simple and easy to make. Green beans and cabbage are mixed, resulting in a crunchy texture, and then soaking in the sweet and tangy vinegar dressing. Bacon is added to enhance the flavour of the dish. This sweet and savoury mixture is perfect for those who want their meals to have complex flavours without too much effort.

Instructions

1.	Place a large skillet over medium heat, add the bacon and cook until crispy. Once done, chop the bacon into small pieces and set it aside.
2.	In a bowl, whisk together the white vinegar, sugar, salt, onion, and black pepper until combined. Do not whisk to create foam.
3.	Add the shredded cabbage and green beans to the skillet and stir. Pour the vinegar mixture over the top.
4.	Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes or until the cabbage is cooked in your desired way.
5.	Once done, remove the skillet from the heat, sprinkle the chopped bacon pieces over the top, and serve.
