Dear Commander,

Sorry to learn you have become a vegetable. It looks like I am going to have to eat you. I hope you are neither cabbage nor cauliflower. Some asparagus with hollandaise would be quite fine.

now that dish is delish, partic. with an oeuf sur la top, but cooked bad (like the bastard one I had in Sheffield this week) I would prefer to have plain spaghetti

now what the hell's your problem with cabbage, yum di yum

When you cook cabbage it smells like garbage. Raw, it tastes not unlike plastic.

"when you spell cabbage
it spells like garbage
pecorino"


I think this is what you meant to write, although I don't normally put cheese on my fav. green.

pecorino - romano cheese, silly. It fixes lots of bad food. It might fix cabbage.

I figured with something like pecorino, you were going to try to strong arm it into being good.

Brussel Sprouts are pretty close to cabbage...
They too smell damned awful when being steamed...but are tasty...I mention this because they are quite good with a little parmesan...so I'm sure pecorino would work too.

I just can't wrap my head (haha) around cooking cabbage. I suppose some German/caraway intensive dish??

sauerkraut - blech
stuffed cabbage - again, blech
I have never had brussel sprauts, but my sister raves on about them from time to time.
She also went on a cabbage diet after her first child because she is crazy. She made cabbage soup - blech.

I hated them (sprouts) as a kid, but like them now.
One of my fave ways to eat them is with a splash of balsamic vinegar. They are sweet-ish, so it's a good combo....
Yeah. Cabbage. Blech.
