Default Cabbage

Cauliflower is just cabbage with a college education. -Mark Twain


Nutrition Highlights
Cabbage (raw, shredded), 1 cup (100g)
Calories: 17.5
Protein: 1.0g
Carbohydrate: 3.8g
Total Fat: 0.19g
Fiber: 1.6g
*Excellent source of: Vitamin C (22.5mg)

Complimentary herbs and spices for cabbage include celery seed, mustard
seed, nutmeg, savory, tarragon, garlic, caraway seed, dill weed, black
pepper, and thyme. Good companion vegetables include potatoes, leeks,
onions, and carrots. It pairs beautifully with corned beef, bacon, and
sausage.


Store the whole head of cabbage in a plastic bag in the refrigerator for up
to a week, two weeks if it is fresh from the garden. But remember, the older
it gets, the stronger the flavor and odor will be. The looser-leaved Savoy
variety should be used within a few days.

Cabbage Measures, Substitutions and Equivalents
.. 1/4 pound cooked cabbage = 1 serving
.. 1 medium head cabbage = 4 servings
.. 1 medium head cabbage = about 2 pounds
.. 1 pound raw cabbage = 2 cups cooked
.. 1 pound fresh = 4 servings cooked
.. 1 medium raw cabbage = 4 cups raw shredded
.. 1 pound raw shredded = 9-10 servings raw
.. 2 pound head cabbage = about 10 cups shredded


Cabbage Varieties: There are over four hundred different varieties of
cabbage.

Red or Purple Cabbage: When cooking with red or purple cabbage, be aware
that the compound (anthocyanin) that gives the cabbage that beautiful color
will also turn it blue when it is cooked along with any alkaline substance.
Since tap water is often full of alkaline minerals such as lime, be sure to
add about 1 teaspoon of acidic agent, such as lemon juice, vinegar, or wine,
to the pot when using tap water. If your red cabbage begins to take on that
blue tinge in any recipe, the addition of the acidic agent will usually
bring back the original color.


Red cabbage can be used interchangeably in most standard cabbage recipes but
be aware that the color will leach into any other ingredients.



Recipes that I have, if interested in any let me know. With a few simple
alterations, most of these recipes can be considerably lower in calories. I
will offer some of these suggestions with the recipe. I have many, many
more recipes. If you are looking for something specific, don't hesitate to
ask.

I did a cabbage and apple bake I got from Woman's World, except I baked
it with a FF cottage cheese base instead of canola oil and cut out ALL the
fat.

I'm finding the more I experiment and blend fruits and vegetables, and
the more variety, the easier it is to stay "pure"
and mostly meat free.
