I used to think you needed chicken stock for richness, but water creates a potent cooking liquid when the ingredients have plenty of flavor.

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Salt and pepper
1/2 large cabbage, preferably savoy, chopped (about 3 cups)
8 ounces small pasta like cavatelli or orecchiette
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 medium leeks, chopped and rinsed well (about 2 cups)
1 celery stalk, chopped
2 to 4 sprigs fresh thyme
2 ounces prosciutto, chopped (about 1/4 cup)
Three 15.5-ounce cans white beans, such as cannellini, drained
1/2 cup grated Parmesan or Pecorino-Romano cheese, plus more for serving

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil and salt it. Add the cabbage, bring back to a boil and cook until just tender, about 3 minutes; use a slotted spoon or small strainer to fish it out. Drain, and let sit. (You can shock it in a bowl of ice water to keep it on the crisp side but I prefer it soft.) When the water returns to a boil, add the pasta and cook until tender but firm; start checking after 7 minutes. Drain, reserving at least 1 cup of the cooking liquid.
  • Return the pot to medium heat (no need to rinse it) and add the oil. When it is hot, add the leeks, celery and a heavy pinch of salt and cook, stirring occasionally until soft, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the thyme and prosciutto and stir until fragrant, just a minute or 2.
  • Add the cabbage, beans and pasta. Add 1 cup of the reserved pasta or bean cooking liquid and cook, stirring once in a while, until the flavors blend and everything is hot, about 5 minutes more. If the mixture dries out, add a little liquid; it should be saucy but not soupy.
  • Sprinkle with the cheese and toss to combine. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Serve, passing more cheese at the table.

For a milder flavor, substitute white Cheddar for the Gruyère and Monterey Jack for Gouda. Cottage Living 9/2006. Have tweaked it with 2% milk and it turned out fine, it was all we had.Update: 06/26/2009 - leave out the salt because the cheeses and prosciutto have enough salt. The hot sauce makes the dish, even when you don't like it - it makes it special.")

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, tender cabbage: Look for heads of cabbage that are firm and heavy for their size, with tightly packed leaves. Avoid any heads that have signs of wilting or bruising.
  • Use high-quality prosciutto: The quality of the prosciutto you use will greatly impact the flavor of the dish. Look for prosciutto that is thinly sliced and has a deep red color.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When searing the prosciutto, make sure not to overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the prosciutto from cooking evenly and will make it more likely to stick to the pan.
  • Cook the cabbage until tender: The cabbage should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight crunch. Overcooking the cabbage will make it mushy.
  • Season to taste: Be sure to season the cabbage to taste with salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or dried thyme.

Conclusion:

Cabbage with prosciutto is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a side dish or main course. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its combination of sweet cabbage, salty prosciutto, and flavorful sauce, this dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
