Holy Cabbage!!!!
So the lovely L shared this photograph of a cabbage that her husband found at the market (seriously, this thing needs to be in some contest!) sitting with her daughter in the high chair. Rather, on the high chair.
Her face is priceless.
And holy schmoly cabbage!
How to Shred a Cabbage
Remove the outer leaves, and any leaves that are drying out on the edges.
Chop right down the middle.
Then chop each half into quarters.
The cut out the stem.
Lay the quarters on one of the flat sides.
And start slicing off the cabbage at an angle.
Until you can’t slice off any more. Gently separate the slices as you toss it into a bowl.
These work perfectly for slaw. (Recipe coming Friday.)
If you’d like some larger chunks for a soup or stew (recipe coming tonight), then cut into chunks.
And then separate the pieces.
Toss into soup or stew.
Tell us your favorite way to eat cabbage!

Oh my……I’m getting gassy……just thinking about eating all of this!
“Hurry up—I can’t hold this thing much longer!!!”
Cabbage leaves: Women have been using cabbage leaves to relieve engorgement symptoms for years. But does this natural remedy actually work? Some women swear by it, but few research studies have been able to medically prove if cabbage leaves actually alleviate engorgement.
Cabbage leaves are usually rinsed off (and sometimes chilled) and the veins of the leaves crushed or removed. The leaves are then placed on the breast, leaving the nipple exposed. Some women place the leaves right in their bra, which helps keep them in place.
“I know you think you’re big, Mom, but isn’t this overkill?”
Pass the Mylicon drops please.
Or, how many babies come inside this thing?
” Mom, does this mean I’m a cabbage patch kid?”
Mom…is this a CABBAGE PATCH DOLL?
Hi Erin! I loved this post. I was writing a post on how to make coleslaw well, and I recommended shredding the cabbage yourself instead of grating it in a food processor. I thought this post was a great tutorial for cooks who don’t have much experience with cabbage, so I linked to it!

Thanks!

Issues regarding fraud and identity theft are on the rise. For this reason more businesses are ensuring that their documents are permanently destroyed by using a paper shredding service. It is not just businesses using paper shredding services but also individuals with sensitive documents, governments, research companies, and more. A quality paper shredding service will ensure that documents are permanently destroyed.
Use a paper shredder for cabbage? Hmm, good idea.
Mommy didn’t show me where the nipple is!!!
