Cabbage and Sausage

Ingredients

Directions

The book gives no oven temperature. The 350°F in the steps was added when the recipe was transcribed, as a starting point.

  1. Place the cabbage and sausage in a tight tin vessel.

  2. Add enough water to cover the ingredients.

  3. Cook over moderate heat (350°F / 175°C) for five hours.

  4. Serve hot.

What each ingredient does

Cabbage
Provides the bulk of the stew and becomes tender and sweet during long cooking.
Sausage
Releases fat and seasoning into the liquid, flavouring the whole stew.
