As that heats, cut the cabbage into quarters, removing the hard inner core. Discard. Roughly chop the quarters into approx. 1" pieces.
Add shallots with 1 Tbsp of butter. Cook 3-4 minutes or until shallots are soft.
Add cabbage and stock. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low and cover. Let simmer 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Uncover, allow any excess moisture to cook away, turn the heat back to medium. Add raisins, butter and season well with salt and pepper. Saute until tender, adding a touch more liquid (stock or water) if it sticks to the pan at all.
Serve with your protein of choice.
Notes
You can omit the simmer time if you blanch the cabbage beforehand. Just bring a pot of water to a boil, add the cabbage and allow to boil for 3 minutes. Drain well. Add to pre-heated pan.
