I used to have a neighbor like her when I was in my 20s. She was in her 60s. I’d drop by after lunch and we’d cook all afternoon. She was an excellent cook and taught me a lot. She was a lot of fun to spend time with. When I watch Rachel, it reminds me of those afternoons cooking, though Rachel is much younger than my neighbor was.

I’ve rewatched this so many times. When my husband was alive we had cabbage rolls at least once a month. Our folks were German/Polish they were a staple. Makes me miss my Grams. Thank you Rachael. Your Ron is a lucky man! I watch you all the time. You are a great cook!

Rachel love your channel. My mom is slovak and she makes really good halupki. A little tip for you to make them xtra special is- at the very end of your dish after the final saucing you thinly slice a little extra onion and spread it over the top then you put a few strips of raw bacon on top of the onion slices then cover and bake as usual. That extra bit of onion and bacon adds such I nice flavor to the tomato sauce. Try it you’ll love the result, I promise.

I make mine exactly like hers but also add bacon placed over cabbage rolls before baking. I feel it really adds that smokey ham taste to the dish.

Your 3/4 cooked rice comment reminded me of a childhood memory. My mother's cousin was a newcomer to this country. Born and raised in Belgium, she escaped the Nazi deathcamps to settle in the U.S. after living in Israel for a number of years. Well, her first year living here in the United States, she told my mother and my mother's sister that she would make Thanksgiving dinner for our families. However, not knowing the American traditional custom of serving turkey, dressing, pumpkin pie, etc., she decided to serve cabbage rolls. Only, they were not like your cabbage rolls... not by a long shot. For one thing, she threw the rice into her meat without cooking it first. The rice was so hard, it tasted like pellets and crunched with every bite! So, as little kids often do... I was brutally honest about my disappointment. I whispered to my mother, who was sitting across the table from me, "This is the WORST Thanksgiving I ever had!" Of course, my mother didn't wish to hurt her cousin's feelings, so she gave me a swift kick from underneath the table! Funny that I look back at this one Thanksgiving today as perhaps the one I remember most... not for the horrible cabbage rolls, but out of fondness for the woman making them. Making these cabbage rolls was, in fact, a testament to this woman's strength and will to survive the unimaginable horrors of the death camps, to journey halfway around the world, and cook a meal for her remaining relatives in a new land.

This video brought back so many memories of my childhood. My grandmother made cabbage rolls every holiday. We called them hulupche, she didn’t use meat for her filling. She sautéed onions to a nice golden sweet taste, then added partially cooked rice. She’d fill the bottom of the roasting pan with boiled cabbage leaves, fill up the pan with the cabbage rolls, add 2 Tbs of vinegar, dot the top with lots of butter. She’d cover the top of the rolls with more cabbage leaves. They’d cook in her roaster for 90 minutes or more. There would be 50 + for Thanksgiving or Christmas at Grandmas, she never ran out of her delicious Polish food. My daughter makes them, as well do lots of cousins, 4 generations cooking Grandma’s food. You are a fantastic teacher! Thank you.

The only thing I would do differently would be to put some sauerkraut on top of them. I always rinse off the sauerkraut to get some of that brine off but you want some of it too. It is really good like that. My Mom was Hungarian and that is how she always made it. I really enjoy your videos. I could sit all day and watch them.

My mother was a banquet cook for over 20 years. Cabbage rolls were made for nearly every meal in an ethnic hall. She made the rolls with a little ground beef, ground pork or sometimes veal., with lots of rice in a big roast pan over 200-300 at a time. Covered with a mixture of tomato soup and tomato juice. Cooked for many hours ... delicious.

My mom made her cabbage rolls with the meat mixture. She layed them in the pan and topped them with well drained sauerkraut. She covered the sauerkraut with a layer of ketchup and baked. I know it sounds weird but they are so delicious. The tangy from the kraut mixed with the sweet from the ketchup just takes them to a whole new level. She would make cabbage rolls, macaroni and cheese, sweet potatoes and hot rolls and they were always a hit.

Rachel - I cannot tell you how much I appreciate you, your style, and loving heart. We grew up on cabbage rolls. My beautiful late Mother came from a Polish family (her maiden name ended in 'ski') and they KNEW how to make their cabbage rolls. My Dad's family came from old school Russia - they were also Extremely PROUD of their cabbage rolls. My husband, however, is from a Hungarian heritage on his father's side. ALL of these family heritages were absolutely PROUD of their cabbage rolls. For me, I lost my beautiful mother when I was just 17 years old. She LOVED to cook and loved us so so much. I cannot tell you how much she would have enjoyed you and your easy-going style of cooking. I feel like she is reaching out to me through you and teaching me what I didn't have the chance to learn from her. I know that sounds cheezy and hopeful; but, I'm convinced she is reaching out to me through YOU. May God Bless you and your family.

I've been making these for 30+ years and I use same ingredients for my sauce as you except I use red wine vinegar because it's what I always seem to have handy! I love the sweet & slightly sour taste of these. I also have learned over the years when I'm in the mood for cabbage rolls hut only have a partial head of cabbage or I want something quicker, I make the sauce, cook my meat and add to the sauce add my chopped cabbage and 3-4 cups beef broth and let simmer about a half hour or until the cabbage is soft. I then add my rice (completely cooked) and just simmer to meld the flavors and we have a wonderful cabbage soup with fresh bread and butter.

I make my cabbage rolls exactly like this. My ex mother in law gave me this eastern european recipe 50+ years ago. The only thing different is that I use lemon juice instead of vinegar and i add grated onion to the meat mixture. Sometimes I add a bed of sauerkraut to the bottom of the pan. I also cut out the core and chop up any remaining cabbage and add to the bottom of the baking dish. We eat it with mashed potatoes or mashed turnips. Yum!!

Thank you dear Rachel for teaching to cook simple and delicious. I use dry basil and dill with the meat and it becomes very tasty too.

My grandmother( French Canadian) made the best cabbage rolls! Her secret ingredient was chopped raw bacon on top while baking😋, her sauce was made with canned tomato soup.She also put some frozen peas and sliced carrots on top while baking.

That's what I do too I'm so happy I found Rachel's recipes I'm 75 I used to cook a lot for the family now I'm alone and it's hard to cook for just one person but I started sharing with my neighbors I made the cabbage rolls they're in the oven I followed Rachel's recipe to the T they look good I'm proud of myself I had to sit down while doing most of it but I got it done just waiting to have some

God I've tried to do this- never saw anyone else do it- and once again- everything made so clear!! Amazing how Rachel knows how to instruct!

I finally tried it and it was delicious, everyone loved it. I also baked sweet and spicy cornbread and roasted garlic mashed potatoes and used the extra sauce to put over the potatoes. Fantastic meal 😋 Thank you 😊

Mmmmm good !

Greetings from Trinidad W.I. I enjoyed looking at your recipe Thursday 28th August 2023 cant wait to try it. Thank God for you sharing is caring

My absolute very favorite food!!! My Mom taught me how to make them. She learned from an old German woman when she lived in NY. We do ours on the stovetop in a large pot or dutch oven. We make our tomato sauce and stack the rolls in the sauce. Then we usually cover them in sauerkraut and let them slow cook for a couple hours. Oh my they are so good!!! This dish has always been my favorite food. Mom would make it for mu birthday dinner!!! At 75 I am the one in my family who makes them now and shares with all family who lives close by. Always have them for New Years Eve and New Years day!!

Cabbage rolls are my all time favorites! I grew up eating cabbage rolls! If you haven’t had them before, you must try it. Your recipe for the rolls are perfect. Thank you for sharing and inspiring us all 🙂🙂

I am Slovak, Russian, Ukrainian and Polish. Watching you seems to be closest to what my mom used to do. The only thing is, I think she used 2 types of meat, pork and beef. I haven't had any of these for a number of years. Thanks for sharing your recipe. Your recipe seems the closest to the one my mom (slovak)❤❤❤❤❤

Thank you for The recipe I love cabbage rolls I will be making some Thursday. Have a blessed day. Thank you.❤

I’m a guy and I love watching you great cooks. I try and copy recipes (like this one). My wife doesn’t cook but, she loves the dinners I make. I’ll try this. She’s Lithuanian and cabbage is popular. Thanks for your videos.

Hi Rachel! I don’t know why it took me so long to find your videos, but now I’m obsessed with watching them. You seem like such an excellent home cook - I love the way you explain things so slowly & exactly…you make me feel confident that I will be able to make them too! I watched you make cabbage rolls a few times before I had the courage to try making them, but today was the day! I have them in the oven now…so I haven’t tasted them, but they look great! I think we will love them.

I hope they were delicious my friend, I'm sorry for such a late response, but it's hard to catch up sometimes. I appreciate your support of my channel. ❤️

Oh, my goodness....3:55 am and I can’t turn your video off! You are so much like my Home Ec. teacher in high school...you are a wonderful teacher. Even though I have probably been cooking a lot longer than you have, and was a professional chef, I just love watching and listening to you cook. Your explanations are very informative. Always so interesting...thank you, Rachael.

I would like to thank you. My husband passed away. Haven't made cabbage rolls in a long time. I forgot my recipe I keep it in my mind. Your recipe comes the closest to mine, thank you. I have now started to write my recipes down.

I stumbled across your recipe and OMG these are the best cabbage rolls I have ever made. The way you explained your techniques on your meat not being too tight and also on how to roll into cabbage leaves was phenomenal. My husband greatly loved his meal as well as his friend, thank you for sharing with us. I am forever a subscriber to you. Thank you.

Hi Rachel! I happened across your channel and absolutely love it. I was in shock when I saw that you were making cabbage rolls! My mother was German and we regularly had the most mouth watering rolls. I married a Mexican man, so at any time you can walk into my kitchen and grab a bratwurst with sauerkraut, or the next day Chile Colorado. I cannot wait to try some of your recipes; you are an amazing cook and I am now addicted to your channel. Thank you for sharing so many wonderful recipes!

This is our Christmas Eve tradition, meal. Each and every year, this is what our mom makes for all of us, kids, grandkids and great grandkids... amazing...

I never paid much attention to the pots and pans tools on other cooking shows until I saw your videos. I was blown away at your immaculate kitchen - your cookware looks brand spanking new. I saw your video on cleaning and now I have clean kitchenware too. Thanks Rachel. You are a true angel.

I love how neat and clean you are when cooking ,I always have a sink with hot water and a little bleach I wash my dishes that I use to cook so my kitchen stays neat ! I hate a messy cook !

I grew up with stuffed cabbage….my mom just threw a can of stewed tomatoes into the pot !,She cut up the remaining cabbage and lined the bottom of the pot. We loved it with mashed potatoes…I’m gonna try your sauce…it looks delicious…

New subscriber. You have such a soothing voice. I feel like I’m at home with my mom. So glad I found your channel 😊

Boy my dad would have never allowed cabbage rolls. But my mom did turn me into an adventurous cook. Yes at 80, I must add these to my my personal dining experience. Thanks for a great demonstration.

I’m going to be 79 and I’m so grateful for everything in my life. I have been watching you for about 6 months. I have learned so much. You explain everything so well. Very easy to follow the recipe. Just wanted to let you know that I’m Jewish faith we call it stuffed cabbage. I’m to buy the meat and everything else make it soon. Then I will put into the freezer and keep it till I need it for the next holiday. It’s been a pleasure enjoying your resumes . Have a good day stay healthy and well. 👍👵grandma

Rachel, you're food always looks so tasty. I can almost smell the aroma. This cabbage roll recipe reminds me of my mother's. Mashed potatoes are definitely the perfect pairing! One thing my mom did that you may consider trying, if you like sauerkraut, is adding it to the sauce under the rolls. It's really good.🤗 You, dear lady, are an excellent teacher!

Thank you for sharing this recipe Rachael my dad was Hungarian so we had cabbage rolls and chicken paprikash I haven't seen this recipe for so long thank you so much for sharing this wonderful video it brings back so many memories ❤❤❤❤

I learned to make cabbage rolls from my Slavic neighbors. For the tomato sauce, they used a couple of cans of Campbell's Tomato Soup mixed with with some water, and didn't have to measure out sugar or vinegar, and they turned perfect.

Rachel, I have made Cabbage Rolls twice in my lifetime & they were too difficult to make that I would not try again. The directions I used in the past (long time ago) did not explain how to do any of the things you show in your video. You are AMAZING on how you explain each detail and to me this is a BIG plus. I got so hungry watching you show each step of cooking these that I was wishing I was there with you to sample them. I am going to try your way of making them because you make it look so easy. Thank you so much for not only your ideas but also your patience in showing all of us how it should be done easier but perfect. I WANT A BITE.😀🎼

Just found you.Thanks for reminding me of the dishes we enjoyed in our youth,learned to make as adults and pass on to our children and grandchildren.

Thank you for showing us how to cook cabbage rolls.

I love cabbage rolls amazing recipe ❤thank you for sharing

Your channel is addictive. I love watching you cook. No distracting music, or anything. It's like attending a cooking class, I save them so my granddaughter can watch if she wants to cook and I'm not here. She is 17.

Oh my goodness, you've made one of my favorite dishes. Didn't grow up eating these cabbage rolls either but after I found them as an adult, I fell in love with them. Never have made them myself but with your recipe, I definitely need to try making them. I have so much fun watching you cook my sweet amiga. Ron certainly is one lucky fellow!

Absolutely love you Rachel! You are a beautiful breath of fresh air to the food network. I grew up on cabbage rolls along with many other ethnic dishes from my Polish, Jewish and Slovic heritage.

I’ve been making these for over 50 years, when I was dating my late husband, his mother taught me. Now that I’m alone, I make a large batch and freeze them.

Dear Rachel, although not necessary, I do add garlic powder and a few finely chopped onions to my meat mixture. Your presentations are so wonderful!! Thank you!!

This was very thorough and comfortable to watch. This sounds like a good recipe. My aunt never used a recipe and every time I made it tasted different. We'll be having it in a week. Thank you.

OMG Rachel, I could watch you cook all day. My husband loves cabbage rolls, but I have never made them bc I thought the recipe that his Mother gave me was a little complicated. Yours seems so much more achievable without fretting too much about it. Looks delicious!

Blessings to you , I’m 65 and have a grown family , I don’t cook much any more but enjoy watching you cook….

Excellent recipe I love cabbage rolls ❤❤❤

Thank YOU, Rachel! You are a pure joy to watch! Love the way you present and how you seem to make everything I want to try! ❤

I came across this recipe- had never made these before. They were delicious! I love the way Rachel explains her recipes. She is right that next day they are amazing tasting. Thanks for great recipe❤

These cabbage rolls look absolutely delicious thanks for sharing your recipe can't wait to make them , I think they will be a perfect fall dish

I absolutely love your videos!!! I love the tv shows in the background. It shows exactly how it is when cooking for the family. You c are so clear in pronunciation, it makes it easier for me to understand. I can’t wait to try this cabbage roll up recipe!! Thank you for these great recipes!❤

I like to use chicken flavor Rice a Roni instead of plain rice . Like you I do exactly as your recipe other than that. A bottled sauce can be used if you want to speed up the process. So good .

They are one of those old fashion delicious foods for dinner .

Me too, except my Mom would make them for my birthday.

I am from Bosnia and Herzegovina and my family made cabbage rolls my whole life and now I am 35 and I also make it for my family. It’s slightly different than your recipe. We do not boil cabbage we actually ferment it first and then we fill and boil and once done it has this thick sauce in between each roll. We typically eat it with mash potatoes so we add the rolls and the sauce on top of the mash potatoes. It’s very delicious. The way you boil fresh cabbage we do the same with young grape leaves and fill similar way you did it with cabbage.

I am almost 77. I use to love to cook cabbage rolls for my family. You just gave me some pointers on things I have forgotten . Thank you. Looks yummy. Maybe I'll make them after Christmas and share them with my friends here in the senior tower.
