Title: Cabbage Recipe Ideas
Post by: dnalexander on October 08, 2008, 04:48:52 PM
I love cabbage but don't have many recipes. I use it raw in tacos and coleslaw. I cook it for St. Partick's day with the boiled corned beef. Any good ideas\recipes to expand my cabbage recipe file?

I turn my cabbage into some wonderful kraut.

I usually will put potatoes (raw and cut in half) and cabbage (take out the core and quarter the head) in a non-stick skillet with old fashioned rope sausage (raw).  I then put in about 1/3 height of skillet of water and then season to taste.  I cook it all on medium to medium-low heat until the sausage is done.  By this time, the potatoes are cooked through and the cabbage is steamed to perfection.  A good old-fashioned German meal!  :laugh:  I also like to take a quarter head of cabbage and put it into the microwave in a microwave-safe bowl, seasoned to taste, buttered, with water in the bottom of the bowl and micro it until it's tender.  It tastes really good this way.

Steamed cabbage with nothing on it is great.  Or throw some little smokies in with it.

My sister Lynn makes scalloped cabbage and it is GOOD. I don't have the recipe but I bet Mom does David.
I love hamburger and cabbage, brown hamburger and onions with salt and pepper, chop up cabbage and add it, a little water and cook it till the cabbage is done, good stuff maynard.

no, Pam, I don't have Lynn's recipe for scalloped cabbage, but maybe she'll read this and post it.  Can tell everyone that the family requests she bring this to EVERY Thanksgiving dinner.  There are three things that are required for this dinner, Scalloped Oysters, Scalloped Cabbage and Grandma Gertie's Apple Cake.  ;D

Unfortunately I don't have an actual recipe, I tend to cook like gma did where just add a dab of this and bit of that  LOL   I can give the general recipe tho, this is for big casserole, do adjust accordingly

1 large head of cabbage, chunked into about 1-2" chunks and blanched just to soften up a lil bit
about 1/2 box of Velveta (others just don't taste the same) chunked into about 1/2" chunks
flour
salt and pepper
butter
milk

after cabbage is blanched drain it good, then start layering in the casserole, starting with cabbage, then sprinkle each layer with salt and pepper and tablespoons of flour, add 3-4 pats of butter, then 1/3 of cheese, usually 3 layers, ending with cheese on top.  Add enough milk to about 1/2 way up the pan, cover and bake for 1 hour at 350.  I usually uncover for about the last 20 minutes cuz e1 likes the cheese a lil crispy on the top

really simple recipe, and have had people who claimed to HATE cabbage love it

We do a Bierocks sandwich.  Brown ground beef and drain, add onion and garlic, salt and pepper to taste -cook, then cabbage cook , cheddar cheese melt.  Toss on some pita bread.  I usually add some raw cabbage and more cheese after it is in the Pita.

Ours is more of a Bierocks casserole:

Put a package of crescent rolls on the bottom of 9x13 pan.
Brown onion, sausage, hamburger. Add cabbage and cheese and a can of mushroom soup.
Cover with another package of crescent rolls.

Bake 350 until rolls are browned.

We use 1 medium onion, two pounds of meat (whatever ratio you want), a medium cabbage (cut up) and about 2 cups of cheese (again, whatever flavors you want).

Mom70X7 , I am SO glad you posted this.  I have a friend that makes this and we were invited to their house for supper last winter and she served this casserole.  YUMMMMMMYYY!! when all the cabbages came out of the patch yesterday on here, it reminded me of Pat's recipe and I was going to call her today and get it, so I could post it.  Now you have it here for us and guess what we are going to have one of these days -- soon?
  Thanks again.
Jo

PS:
I came back in and modified this --- Pat said the recipe called for the crescent rolls on the bottom, but she thought that they were sort of "soggy"  so she put them only on the top.  It was" delish" as I posted before.

Cabbage Casserole

I take this to lots of gatherings and family events. We like this a lot!

1 head of cabbage cut into chunks and boiled for 10 minutes. (or whatever time to have it the level of crispness you like).
drain.
Place cabbage in a casserole dish.

1 can Cream of Chicken soup
1 small jar Cheese Whiz
1/4 cup milk
mix and prour over boiled cabbage.

Crush Ritz Crackers and sprinkle over the top... not to many ...
bake 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
You can add ham if you want to make it a full meal or leave it as a side dish.
