25 Heirloom Late Flat Dutch Cabbage Seeds FREE Recipe Included!

The classic garden cabbage may not really be Dutch. It was actually brought to the new world by German immigrants around 1840 (the same way most people called "Pennsylvania Dutch," are actually from German stock), but Dutch or German, it's still the best, with firm heads measuring about 12" in diameter.

Cabbage is easy breezy to grow. Just keep away from melons. They enjoy cold weather or cooler winters here in Southern California. Cabbage doesn't grow well during late spring or summer here.

My mom used to make a Polish dish called "Pigs In A Blanket" with a filling wrapped inside cabbage leaves. It was a favorite of our family.Delicious! Is the recipe for "Pigs In A Blanket" ? Thats what the 4th picture looks like to me.

I've always known pigs in a blanket to be a wiener wrapped with a bread of sorts. The recipe is a traditional stuffed cabbage recipe.

I had the sweetest cabbage and tomato dish the other day. The dish had brown sugar added to it. The brown sugar completely changed the flavour of the cabbage. I had never had that before.

yes los angeles, the rue does just that... you cover everything with water or stock and after it cooks awhile, u gently stir in the finished rue as a light thickening... its really good... i like the idea tho of the cabbage with brown sugar and tomatoes... never met a veggie i didnt like lol
