Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 3h

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 fresh yeast cake
1/2 cup warm water
1/2 cup shortening
1 cup milk (warm)
2 eggs
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
7 -8 cups flour
5 lbs cabbage
2 tablespoons salt
1/2 cup oil or 1/2 cup margarine
1 egg
1/2 cup milk or 1/2 cup water
1/2 cup butter, for brushing

Steps:

  • Filling Preparation: Chop cabbage, add salt and let stand for 1/2 hour. Squeeze all juice out. In a frying pan, put 1/2 cup oil or shortening. Put in cabbage and fry for about 3/4 hour. Stir continually until just lightly browned (so the cabbage takes on a sweeter, caramelized taste). Then let cool.
  • Pasty Preparation: Soften yeast cake in 1/2 cup warm water. Add shortening to 1 cup milk and warm together. Beat eggs slightly, mix with the milk, and add 1/2 cup water, sugar and salt. Add to the yeast mixture. Add 3 cups flour, mix well, and let rise about 1/2 hour. Mix in as much of the remaining flour (4-5 cups)to get a good, non-sticky dough suitable for rolling. Let rise again and punch down.
  • Assembly: Roll dough into pasty sized circles (about a 4-6 inch circle, but you can make them smaller for appetizers, and larger for lunch on the go -- ) and spread your cabbage filling on half of the dough, almost to the edge. Fold dough over and pinch edges together to seal. Brush with an egg wash (makes a nice, shiny brown crust) and prick with fork as for pie.
  • Bake on greased cookie sheets at 375°F for 20-30 minutes.
  • Brush the finished pasties with melted butter.

KAPUZTA

This is a truly authentic "Old World recipe"-friends of our family who moved here from Poland gave it to my mother years ago. It's been a favorite Sunday dinner with all of us ever since then. I've found that it's always a hit at potluck dinners, too. After my husband and I moved to our dairy farm, I discovered that this hearty, one-dish dinner was a perfect one for our busy schedule...and that any leftovers taste even better the second day!

Tips:

  • Choose the right cabbage: Use a firm, green cabbage for the best flavor and texture.
  • Shred the cabbage finely: This will help it cook evenly and absorb the flavors of the other ingredients.
  • Season the cabbage well: Salt, pepper, and garlic powder are all good options. You can also add other spices or herbs, such as cumin, paprika, or oregano.
  • Cook the cabbage until it is tender but still has a bit of a crunch: This will take about 10-15 minutes.
  • Don't overcook the cabbage: If you cook it for too long, it will become mushy and lose its flavor.
  • Serve the cabbage hot or cold: Cabbage is delicious either way. If you are serving it cold, be sure to chill it for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

Cabbage is a versatile and delicious vegetable that can be used in a variety of dishes. Whether you are making a simple cabbage salad, a hearty cabbage soup, or a savory cabbage stir-fry, there is a cabbage recipe out there for everyone. So next time you are looking for a healthy and affordable way to add some variety to your meals, be sure to give cabbage a try.
