Well, damn. Now I want a runza…
I thought of an appetizer I’ve had a couple of times here in the Atlanta area, a large boiled cabbage leaf stuffed with some meat and goodies. Very tasty. I’m not sure of the ethnic origin, if any … it’s not southern, though cabbage boiled with some ham hocks and spiced up with some hot pepper sauce is a southern staple … which I’m quite fond of.
Except that it seems they’re not cabbage rolls, but cabbage-stuffed pastries. I’ve had those before, too, but never had an English name for them.
There should be an option for “Nothing I would ever eat in a million years.”
That dish appears throughout Central and Eastern Europe under various names and appears to be an extension of the stuffed grape-leaf dishes (dolma) you’d find across the area that was the Ottoman Empire.
Man, you can put hot pepper sauce on pea gravel and make it good enough to eat. ![]()
But the stuffed bell pepper concept works as well as stuffed cabbage for my tastes. However “cabbage pocket” didn’t conjure up food thoughts to me.
Nothing at all. I have never heard any dish called a cabbage pocket.
I’ve never heard the term. I thought something to go with a Cabbage Patch Kid, before opening this thread.
Ditto.
