The Cabbage

Jeremy and I were talking a bit this morning about my lunch today.  Lunch is not generally a topic of conversation at our house but, today is exceptional - it's cabbage roll day!




I just so happens that this, ^^  that mess up ^^ there, is hands down my absolute favorite food, ever...ok...well, one of them.  My sisters all make this mess of deliciousness and I love them even more when they do!

I happen to be a HUGE fan of the cabbage in various forms.  Growing up boiled cabbage in milk and butter was a fave.  Fried cabbage with noodles was a delicacy that we all still hanker for occasionally, and of course the coleslaw, with either a cream sauce or vinegar.

And there is always sauerkraut!  Nothing like a little roasted pork and some kraut with corn and mashed potatoes!  Yum!

Summer is coming.  Bringing with it the giant heads of cabbage at the farm stands to make all of my favorites. Sorry Jeremy!  (there's something wrong with him...he's not a fan of the cabbage!)

  1. Yep...one of my favorites too!!! I used to hate it when my kids pulled the cabbage leaves off the filling and ate the filling..WHAT?? It was all good! The Greek women (because there was little cold for cabbage) made it with Swiss Chard.

  2. I am so far behind in blog reading and just read your post about Mother's Day and wanted to comment but didn't know exactly what to say and so I decided to take a breather and read the next post and now I'm sorry because I'm not sure I can formulate any meaningful comment with all this deliciousness staring me in the face.

    I mean...seriously....is it lunch time? Can someone make me a cabbage roll? I am honestly drooling over here. I love these things with all my heart an soul!

    I'm curious about your other cabbage recipes too...boiled in milk and butter? I've only dipped my toes into the cabbage world recently and would love any more things you have to share!
