CREAMED CABBAGE- NORWEGIAN STYLE



Creamed Cabbage- Norwegian Style image

I remember eating this when I was younger. It was the only way I liked cabbage then. This seems to really bring out the sweetness of the vegetable and remove any harshness- which kids just do not enjoy. As a kid it looked like something drenched in gravy or whipped cream- looks are deceiving- but whatever gets the kid to eat the veggie was cool with my mom.

CREAM OF CABBAGE SOUP



Cream of Cabbage Soup image

Meet the Cook: There were 11 children in my family when I was growing up, and my husband and I have seven grown children (and now eight grandchildren). Need less to say, I have been cooking ever since I could handle a spoon. People love this soup's flavor and creamy cheese consistency. I've given the recipe to friends, who've varied it a little. One substituted summer squash and zucchini for the rutabaga. She said it tasted just great that way, too. -Helen Riesterer, Kiel, Wisconsin

NORWEGIAN CABBAGE ROLLS



Norwegian Cabbage Rolls image

Velkommen! My take on traditional Norwegian kålruletter. My girlfriend likes the way I make them. I use a little less potato starch and throw some caraway seeds and rice in the filling, leaving a more meaty texture and a bit more flavor, in my opinion. Serve with brunsaus (brown gravy), rice, and boiled potatoes. Agurksalat (cucumber salad) is a great accompaniment to this dish.

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Stuffed Main Dish Recipes     Stuffed Cabbage

Time 1h35m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 large yellow onion, finely chopped
1 pound 80% lean ground beef
1 cup cooked rice
½ cup heavy whipping cream
1 large egg
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh Italian parsley
2 teaspoons potato starch
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
1 teaspoon whole caraway seeds
¼ teaspoon ground ginger
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
⅛ teaspoon ground cloves
2 large heads cabbage, cored

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a baking pan.
  • Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat; stir in onion. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • Transfer onion to a large mixing bowl and add beef, cooked rice, cream, egg, parsley, potato starch, 2 teaspoons salt, pepper, caraway seeds, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves. Mix to combine in an even consistency and refrigerate filling until needed.
  • Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Place 1 head of cabbage in the boiling water and parboil until bright green and leaves are softened, about 2 minutes. Carefully remove cabbage with tongs or a large fork. Repeat with remaining head of cabbage. Allow to cool, about 10 minutes.
  • Remove outer leaves from the cooled cabbage. Lay 1 leaf flat on a work surface and cut out the stem. Spoon a generous 2 tablespoons of filling into the center of the leaf. Fold the corners at the stem end diagonally over the filling, fold the sides over, and roll up like a tiny burrito. Place in the prepared baking pan. Repeat to make remaining cabbage rolls until filling is used up.
  • Add water to the baking pan until it is halfway up the sides of the cabbage rolls.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until beef is cooked through and no longer pink, about 40 minutes.

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped

Freshly ground pepper to taste
2 cups low-fat milk
1 cup grated Gruyère cheese
6 1/2-inch thick slices of French or country bread, toasted and cut into small squares
Minced fresh chives

Bring to a simmer, cover and simmer over low heat for 30 minutes, until the vegetables are tender.

NORWEGIAN CHRISTMAS CABBAGE



Norwegian Christmas Cabbage image

Norwegian Christmas Cabbage is essentially a kind of sweet and sour sauerkraut, spiced with caraway seeds.

Provided by Finn Roed

Categories     Side Dish     Vegetables

Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 slices bacon
1 large head cabbage, cored and shredded
¼ cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon caraway seed
1 pinch salt and pepper to taste
½ cup white vinegar, or to taste
½ cup white sugar, or to taste

Steps:

  • Lay two slices of bacon across the bottom of a large pot. Cover with a layer of cabbage. Sprinkle a light dusting of flour and a pinch of caraway seed. Season with a little salt and pepper. Repeat layering as many times as possible until you run out of room.
  • Fill the pot with enough water to come about 3/4 up the side. Bring to a boil, and cook for about 45 minutes, or until the cabbage is soft, stirring occasionally. Let cool slightly, then stir in the vinegar and sugar. Use your own judgment. Add sugar carefully to taste. The idea is to strike a balance between the sweet and the sour, and therein lies the trick.
