Steps:
- Make slits at the base of the cabbage or cut out the entire core. Fill a large saucepan about 1/3 full of water. Bring to a boil and add the whole cabbage. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes, turning occasionally, until cabbage has softened. Drain and cool. Cut the leaves off the cabbage one by one, trying to keep them intact. Cut out the tough, thick center ribs of the large leaves with a sharp knife.
- Bring 1 1/2 cups water and rice to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a skillet and cook 1/2 the chopped onions until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Combine cooked rice, cooked onions, ground beef, ground pork, salt, and pepper in a large bowl and mix with your hands until filling is well combined.
- Lay 1 cabbage leaf on a flat surface. Place 1 tablespoon of filling at the base of a cabbage leaf. Overlap with the bottom of the leaf; fold in side edges and roll up. Repeat with remaining cabbage and filling.
- Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat and fry cabbage rolls until browned, 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Transfer to a large pot and sprinkle with remaining chopped onion and carrots.
- Stir together sour cream and tomato paste in a bowl until well combined. Whisk in 1 cup water and season sauce with salt and herbs. Pour sauce over the cabbage rolls.
- Cover pot and cook over a medium-low heat until cabbage rolls are cooked through and sauce has thickened, about 45 minutes.

SCHLABBERKAPPES (CABBAGE WITH GRAVY)
This is a regional specialty of which I heard from my MIL when DH and me moved here. Hearing the ingredients, my first thought was "This sounds weird!". It took a couple of years before I could bring it over me to beg MIL to make that stuff. And boy was I surprised at how GOOD it is! Every year in October we use to make sauerkraut with a group of about 15 people. Big action - one guy gets 800 pounds (yes, 800 pounds) of cabbage with his truck directly from the farmer, and then we go. Two persons who quarter the cabbage heads, one person who grates the cabbage, two persons who measure cabbage and salt and mix it in a large tub, three people who pound the cabbage and the rest of us will fill the pounded cabbage into the jars and clean up so the place doesn't get too soggy. In the meantime MIL will make the gravy, and just before we are done grating, pounding and filling jars, I'll pop a large meatloaf into the oven and someone will bring a tub of freshly grated cabbage over to her, so she can prepare the Schlabberkappes. Next day I'll for sure have leftover meatloaf, but NEVER Schlabberkappes...

Steps:
- Skin and cube potatoes, cover with slightly salted water and cook until nearly mushy. Remove from heat, but don't discard the water!

Add pepper, vinegar and sugar and as much additional salt as you like. The gravy should be sweet, sour and salty.
- Dump the cabbage into the gravy, bring to a boil and remove from heat. The cabbage should not be cooked but only blanched. Try again whether you should add some more vinegar, sugar or salt.

Steps:
- Make the filling: Put 1 pound each of beef and pork together through the fine blade of a food chopper twice. In a bowl, combine the meat with 1 cup cooked rice, 1 egg lightly beaten, 1 onion and 2 garlic cloves, both minced, and salt and pepper to taste. Remove 12 large outer leaves from a head of cabbage, reserving the remaining cabbage for another use. Dip the leaves briefly in boiling water to soften and spread them out flat on a work surface. Top each leaf with some of the filling and fold the leaves over the filling, tucking in the ends to make neat rolls. Put 2 pounds sauerkraut in a large kettle with light beer or white wine to cover and heat it gently. In a sauce pan melt 3 tablespoons lard, bacon fat or ham fat, blend in 3 tablespoons flour and cook the roux for 1 to 2 minutes. Blend it into the sauerkraut and bring the liquid to a boil, stirring constantly. Arrange the cabbage rolls on top of the sauerkraut and cook them, covered, in a moderate oven (350?F.) for 2 to 3 hours or until the filling is done. Serve the stuffed cabbage and sauerkraut topped with sour cream.;
FRIED CABBAGE WITH CARROTS AND PEPPERS
Cabbage is a staple in Gullah cooking, and there's so much more you can do with it than just coleslaw. This simple sauteed cabbage dish is one of my favorite ways to prepare the vegetable, and it's great with just about any protein. Better yet, it's a great dish to serve a large crowd.

- Season the cabbage with salt, pepper, and other spices to taste.
- Serve the cabbage hot with mashed potatoes, roasted meats, or sausages.
