savoy cabbage

savoy cabbage 040 I harvested this beautiful cabbage head a few days ago. I'm looking for a good recipe as I have a special guest visiting this weekend. Any suggestions?

I'm thinking of maybe an apple and cabbage coleslaw served in the cabbage leaves. ... Some tangy green apples, with a few carrots, raisins and onions added. Maybe this recipe: Yummly Apple Raisin Cole Slaw Recipe.

    Love the texture of the savoy...it certainly needs a special recipe in its honor.

    Gorgeous garden shots and big doggie.

    There is a recipe for Pinot Grigio slaw which involves a small amount of peanut butter and is very good. Here is a link from a news paper. It was in our paper years ago, and I make it all the time -hope the link works:

    hi Kathy,

    I was given this recipe for soup from an Italian man I took care
    of as a Home Health Aide.

    It might be something you like. And I thought you might want another idea of how to use your
    cabbage.

    Chop the cabbage in small pieces.
    Cook in Chicken broth or water
    with bouillon cubes added. I like
    to use about 6 cups of water or
    chicken broth.

    I add rice and garlic. Onions are an option. Other veggies like chopped carrots can be good, too.

    I let cabbage and rice cook until
    soft.

    I add navy beans if I desire.
    A secret ingredient of vinegar
    makes the recipe complete. A few tablespoons is enough.

    I hope this works for you. My son
    likes it.
    Alice
