My 80 year old mother insisted that I make sauerkraut, stuffed cabbage a couple of weeks ago. Under her direct supervision, of course. I do all of the hoop jumping, and it's finally ready to serve. She says, "I only want the meat ball inside of the cabbage. I don't like cabbage, or sauerkraut. I just like the flavors they get into the meat."
So, let me get this straight, you don't like 2 of the three main ingredients in this dish? So, over the next couple of days she ate the meat part of three of them. Shes says, you can eat the rest. It's an entire crock pot of all of the goop. I can't eat all of that! Ended up doing the best I could and we threw a lot of it out.
On the the SB grub:
Think I am going to go Mexican. Get some chicken and cheese flour taquitos. Spicy pico de gallo. Ann chopped mango to it. Spanish rice and refried beans of the side. And if I can find some, jalepeno jelly. Someone is hoarding is around here. Went to three different stores yesterday, and all three have shelf tags, indicating the carry it, but all of it was gone. Everything surrounding that particular item was fully stocked! Today I'll try some Hispanic grocery stores and see if the plot thickens. The dish really misses without that jelly, dangit!
Your a good son. Making stuffed cabbage is a lot of work. I cheat. I just make the meatballs, and rough chop cabbage, and layer on top. Also, if you have juicer, you could juice the cabbage, and pour over meatballs. cheers..
