Creamy Savoy Cabbage Recipe

Creamy Savoy Cabbage

From sheba 16 years ago

This is a version of the German dish my mom used to make, she didn't use the cream but made a medium white sauce. Perfect for a cold fall day.

1. Halve the cabbage, cut out the stalk and shred the leaves finely. Saute the onion and bacon in the butter until onion is translucent and bacon is crisp.
2. Add the cabbage, season with salt, pepper and nutmeg to taste and cook briefly. Pour in the cream and reduce the heat to low until the mixture is creamy and the cabbage is tender.

I have been looking for a recipe for savoy cabbage called Wirsing that my mother made years ago. I think this could be it, with the white sauce. Was your mother from Bavaria?
