From the fun with language department. I bought a cabbage. A curly leaf cabbage. I used a few slices in a soup. I sauteed some mixed veggies and added some cabbage. I was making martinis one night and decided it would be fun to add some sweet vermouth to the mixed veggies, and I added some cabbage to that.
This particular cabbage lasted for about 10 dishes. Tonight it was looking limp, so I decided it needed to be finished off. I did onions, garlic, cabbage and tomatoes in olive oil. I didn’t add the tomato until the very end so it was only cooked for about two minutes. I used sweet vermouth, salt and pepper. Delicious.
Over dinner I said, “I’m going to miss that head of cabbage.” Arthur cracked up.
