• A free Cabbage

    From Jill McQuown@21:1/5 to All on Thu Jul 31 18:14:27 2025
    Someone who works in my building was gifted some farm fresh vegetables
    and it was more than she could use. So when she offered me a free
    cabbage I said heck yes, thank you!

    I love cabbage. I also have a corned beef brisket in the freezer. So
    this weekend I'll be cooking corned beef & cabbage in the crock pot.

    Lucky girl! Don't forget the cornbread; maybe even some small
    red potatoes thrown into the pot, too?

    It was very nice of her. It's a very large cabbage! I'll probably only
    be able to fit half of it, cut into quarters, in the crock pot with the
    corned beef. I'm not sure about adding potatoes.

    There's likely going to be half a cabbage left. I need to think about
    what to do with that.

    I've made three skillets of cornbread in the last two months. I'm
    getting a little tired of cornbread. LOL

    Cole slaw? Stuffed cabbage? Cabbage soup?


    Careful, sometimes you can draw fire when just trying to please her

    I just bought a cabbage and some port stew meat today. Oh...and some
    taco chips. I have the other ingredients we need. There's posole in our

    By the way, I have no idea what real posole tastes like. I've only eaten
    mine.

    Obviously, you can use whatever oil you like, if you don't
    have EVOO.

    I prefer Savoy cabbage for this, but I've used round cabbage
    successfully.

    Thanks. Yes, I have EVOO.

    I just put the corned beef brisket in the crock pot on high heat with
    the seasoning packet and a couple of extra bay leaves. I'll be adding
    some wedges of cabbage to it in about 5 hours.

    I'll set the rest of the cabbage aside to roast, although I'm not sure I
    want it as charred looking as in that article. Even when I grill
    cabbage I do it offside the coals so it will caramelize nicely but
    doesn't blacken.

    The very idea of charred greens turns my stomach. A few years ago I was
    in Sydney looking for a restaurant and it seemed that every place was
    featuring charred greens of one sort or another. I opted for a sandwich instead.
    It just takes one chef to feature something different and the rest all
    follow suit.

    Cole slaw? Stuffed cabbage? Cabbage soup?

    Pigs in a blanket. Wrap the ground pork or beef up with rice in the
    cabbage leaves and cook in tomato sauce.

    That's an idea! I have a great recipe for cabbage rolls my mother used
    to make. It calls for tomato juice, not tomato sauce, and there is sour
    cream added. She called it Hungarian cabbage rolls. I guess it is.
    Töltött Káposzta. She didn't add bacon or use bacon grease, though.
    I'd have to buy some ground pork. Meanwhile I've just wrapped up the
    half head of cabbage and put it in the refrigerator.

    Pigs in a blanket.  Wrap the ground pork or beef up with rice in the
    cabbage leaves and cook in tomato sauce.

    That's an idea!  I have a great recipe for cabbage rolls my mother used
    to make.  It calls for tomato juice, not tomato sauce, and there is sour cream added.  She called it Hungarian cabbage rolls.  I guess it is. Töltött Káposzta.  She didn't add bacon or use bacon grease, though.
    I'd have to buy some ground pork.  Meanwhile I've just wrapped up the
    half head of cabbage and put it in the refrigerator.

    Wonderful! I hope your Majesty keeps us updated with all the details of
    how this enormous cabbage gets cooked. It sounds like a Popeye size
    cabbage! Enough to feed everyone in the entire Dataw realm.

    I suppose your Vicky's chips evaluation will have to get put on the back
    burner for a while, but that's OK your Highness. We are always very
    patient and anxiously await your proclamations.

    I have grilled cabbage wedges in the past but I've never roasted
    cabbage

    Obviously, you can use whatever oil you like, if you don't
    have EVOO.

    I prefer Savoy cabbage for this, but I've used round cabbage
    successfully.

    Thanks.  Yes, I have EVOO.

    I just put the corned beef brisket in the crock pot on high heat with
    the seasoning packet and a couple of extra bay leaves.  I'll be adding
    some wedges of cabbage to it in about 5 hours.

    I'll set the rest of the cabbage aside to roast, although I'm not sure
    I want it as charred looking as in that article.  Even when I grill
    cabbage I do it offside the coals so it will caramelize nicely but
    doesn't blacken.

    The very idea of charred greens turns my stomach. A few years ago I was
    in Sydney looking for a restaurant and it seemed that every place was featuring charred greens of one sort or another. I opted for a sandwich instead.
    It just takes one chef to feature something different and the rest all
    follow suit.

    I'm not a fan of charred vegetables. Roasting is sometimes nice but
    blackened, no thanks.

    Makes sense. I guess it's the opposite of steamed vegetables.

    But they are only LIGHTLY steamed.
