Baked Cabbage

Oven, in the book's wordsA moderate oven

Ingredients

Directions

The book says “a moderate oven”. The 350°F (175°C) in the steps is the modern equivalent, not the book's own figure.

  1. Chop the cold boiled cabbage finely and ensure it is perfectly drained.

  2. Mix the chopped cabbage with butter.

  3. Put the mixture into a buttered pudding dish.

  4. Bake in a moderate oven at 350°F (175°C) until light brown.

  5. Serve hot.
