What ingredients for Stuffed cabbage?

How to prepare Stuffed cabbage?

  1. 1

    Peel the cabbage by removing the wilted leaves and the core along with the largest ribs.

  2. 2

    Blanch it for 10 minutes in salted boiling water.

  3. 3

    Meanwhile, slice the carrots and onion into rounds and grease a casserole dish with pork cracklings.

  4. 4

    Drain the cabbage and gently press it to squeeze out the excess water.

  5. 5

    Place some of the stuffing at the center.

  6. 6

    Gently separate the leaves without breaking the cabbage and slip in some of the stuffing, distributing it evenly to stuff the entire head.

  7. 7

    Wrap it with slices of bacon that will be tied with a string.

  8. 8

    Arrange the stuffed cabbage on top of the pork cracklings alongside the carrots and onion.

  9. 9

    Season with salt and pepper, moisten with half of the liquid mixture of wine and broth.

  10. 10

    Cover and cook gently for 3 hours, adding a little liquid from time to time; there should always be some in the casserole, but the cabbage must never be fully submerged.

  11. 11

    Remove the cabbage.

  12. 12

    Unwrap it from its bacon layers and serve it, ladled with the cooking sauce, which can be skimmed if necessary.

  13. 13

    Cut it into quarters.

  14. 14

    If you fear that the cabbage might fall apart during cooking, you could wrap it in a cheesecloth after barding it with bacon.

  15. 15

    This way, it will keep its shape.
