White cabbage

Coleslaw
It can also be stir fried with cashew nuts onions and garlic

Stuff it with a bolognaise sauce, or with butter on with roast dinner.

Or, place it carefully in the fridge, wait for a couple of weeks, then put it on the compost heap.

Oh stir fry that’s a good idea.

Mind you ???? there is only so much stir fry.

It does keep well in the fridge.

I have two footballs sat there reminding me every time I open the fridge door

The whole ethos of oddbox is to have no waste???.

The guilt is terrible

Yes oops the fridge method is what I do with mine!

Oopsadaisy1 ha ha love your suggestion, gave me a chuckle.. I often buy veg and forget to use it too

Do you have any leek delivered in your box ? if you do cut it up and mix with the white cabbage its very tasty.

I made Saurkraut once, fermented it for ages (in a specially bought giant Kilner jar).

Threw that out too.

Oh yes I do.

This week was

Leek
White cabbage
Aubergines
Mushrooms
Mixed salad
Tomatoes
Cucumber
Celeriac
Fennel
Potatoes
Onions
Apples
Kiwis
Plums
Rhubarb
Dates

Celeriac is always a challenge and if course the white footballs

Shred it and cook in the microwave with a few knobs of butter, and top it with bacon rashers. A piece of kitchen paper loosely over the top prevents splashes from the bacon.

Celeriac mash
Celeriac soup.

Both nice.

I love it grated in mustard Mayo as in celeriac remoulade...but I’ve never actually made it

White cabbage . Use some for coleslaw.

Give it to someone who likes it ?

Try creamed cabbage for a change. Put cooked white cabbage in an oven proof dish and pour over a white creamy sauce. Add nutmeg to the sauce. Sprinkle grated cheese and breadcrumbs over and bake until crisp and golden. You can also add crispy cooked bacon to the cabbage. Serve as a side dish.

I love celeriac. You can roast it like parsnip. I had a nice recipe to cook it with potatoes and a cooking apple. Mash and add a little cream and grated nutmeg and black pepper. Cut the seleriac up small as it can take longer to cook.

Do you have a community fridge? Our village church makes meals and delivers them - do you have one?

I quite like it raw as a sort of nibble but that's an awful lot of nibbling.

Sorry, I’m with you on waste, but white cabbage just defeats me and I’d never choose it, good luck! (perhaps someone has rabbits or guinea pigs, if they like it?)

I have no idea kitty but I am now going to find out ?

What a brilliant idea.

Thanks for all the ideas though.

Today is a takeaway???? going to DDs first time for way over a year.

We have all been vaccinated except the eldest grandchild, he will eat in the sitting room apparently - too cold to eat in the garden.

Mix it with mash potato it’s then colcannon an Irish dish. You could slice it with potato cream and garlic bake it in oven. Make bubble and squeak or potato salad with shredded cabbage. Pan haggerty a dish from Northumberland is nice. Polish stuffed cabbage individually fill the leaves with spicy pork or sausage meat. Then roll them up in a casserole dish top it with tomato sauce. I also make Polish cabbage soup a lot it’s delicious.

You all make me feel very inadequate?.

But some really good ideas.

I found the community kitchen. So that will for ever be the recipient of my excess in future thanks to kitty
I don’t know why I hadn’t thought if that before.

I love white cabbage.
Slice as finely as possible, rinse and shake, stir fry in butter for 3/4 minutes add salt and black pepper.
Absolutely delicious.
Also coleslaw with raisins and grated carrots, what’s not to like.
Ok, white cabbage if you really hate it.?

I use it in stir fries and coleslaw. Another way I use it is to make a chunky minestrone soup and put chopped slices of the cabbage in it. I think it may freeze too if it is a rather large specimen ?

Include some of it in a raw vegetable salad, and I`m sure someone you know wouldn`t say no to the rest of it. I only like white cabbage raw, hate it cooked.

Stir fry or a multi-veg soup.

I also use it in a sort of coleslaw thing - cabbage, onion, carrot, celery and apple, all chopped or shredded fine/small, with just enough mayonnaise to bind it - not swimming in the stuff.

It’s delish and goes with all sorts, plus unlike most salad items, all those ingredients keep very well.

Celeriac remoulade is easy BTW.

And so is a celeriac mash (or half potato half celeriac).

Chop your cabbage downwards into big "rounds" about 1cm thick and put on baking tray. Drizzle with olive oil.
Salt and pepper it and sprinkle wild fennel or cumin seeds over (not too many). Bake till the cabbage us cooked and top turning crispy.
If you eat meat, crumble well cooked bacon over it or pancetta once cooked.
Delicious.

My father taught me to shred white cabbage and sautee with butter and an onion till a slightly golden tinge to the cabbage. Add salt and pepper.
Also tasty.
