O/T: Food For New Years

Tradition has it you eat cabbage on New Years Day.

Those of you who are Kosher will have to modify, sorry about that.

Cabbage and Spuds

1 Lb, Smoked sausage, cut into 1/2" pieces
1 Hd, Cabbage, cleaned and chopped (I don't eat the core)
5-6, White potatoes, pealed and cubed.
1 Lg, Spanish onion, cleaned and chopped
3-4 stalks, Celery, cleaned and chopped
1 Pint, Chicken stock (Bullion cubes and water will also work, just
adjust salt content)
2-3 Tbl, Olive Oil
1 tps, Fresh cracked black pepper
1 Tbl, Kosher salt

Preparation:

Using a 6 Qt, cast iron Dutch oven with olive oil in bottom, saute
onion and celery for about 3-4 minutes, then add sausage pieces for an
additional 3-4 minutes.

Stir and add salt and pepper as you saute.

Add chicken stock and potato cubes, mixing completely.

Cover with Dutch oven lid and place in a 350F oven for 30 minutes,
then remove from oven and let rest for about 30-45 minutes for
serving.

Serve with a salad and French bread, if desired.

Since I created the above, after raiding the refrigerator one day, I
call it "Cabbage and Spuds".

BTW, much tastier the next day.

If you don't like that one, there is always bacon and fried cabbage.

Lew,
You put Kosher salt in there so that will neutralize anything that is
not Kosher.

My oldest daughter is a Texan (due to short 5-yr excursion on my part
during the oil exploration boom/bust in the early 1980's). The
tradition there is to eat black-eyed peas and champagne, first thing
on New Year's Day. Which translates to "right after midnight
NewYear's Eve".


Better than cabbage. By a long shot.
