I think I have an answer to the peeling / blanching mystery - if you use a normal green cabbage to make cabbage rolls, you have to blanch before you peel the leaves apart into single leaves or else you’ll tear the leaves a bunch. By contrast, the crinkle leaf type will more easily tear apart raw, and then it’s a simple matter to just blanch the number of leaves you need for your recipe. Clear as mud! Enjoyable video as always, Jamie!

by contrast the crinkle type leaves will “tear apart” raw - You mean “separate from the head,” right? What confused Jamie was why he had to blanch the Savoy cabbage leaves afterwards when he didn’t have to before separation - and the answer is so that they would pack into the mold more easily, conform to the shape of it, and not leave air pockets.

I think the issue is that you don't use the entire head of cabbage in this recipe. So, if you can leave the center of the head raw, you have more options for the leftovers such as cole slaw. Julia probably didn't think this needed to be spelled out.

Your wife is right, this seems to be a French interpretation of that mainstay of Eastern European (not just Polish) peasant cuisines, cabbage rolls. Those are individually wrapped, though, with single leaves of blanched or pickled cabbage, and the filling is made with only uncured pork sausage, unboiled rice, raw egg, onions, garlic and spices. Then, all of the cabbage rolls are cooked together in a pot with water or the pickling juice of the cabbage, with a couple of tomatoes and herbs (such as dill) thrown in. And that's it. In Hungary, we call it töltött káposzta, and eat it with fresh bread and creme fraiche, nothing else.

Loved this. My Ukrainian roommate's Baba makes the most epic cabbage rolls, very similar to this recipe. Two tips/tricks she taught me, is when boiling the cabbage, add about a half cup of vinegar to the boiling water before adding in the cored cabbage head (especially for those that don't peel easily off). Leaves just slip off with little effort. Also, de-veining of the cabbage leaves along the thick vein on the backside, makes for more tender leaves. ;)

Team J: Get yourself a set of stainless pots & pans. The Costco Kirkland brand is a pretty good option to the holy grail: All-Clad. They will help when you need to cool 😎 the contents quickly. Le Cruset & Company are basically encased cast iron. Once they get hot they take there sweet time cooling down. BTW: Your neighbor upstairs must have the cleanest floors in town. You should introduce yourself & invite them to the next shoot. One more thing: Make some bubble & squeak with all that leftover cabbage. Yummy!!!

one of my favorite things i used to love when i was a kid was a stewed cabbage and bacon soup. chicken stock, crushed black pepper and a few other specific spices, cabbage carrots, finely diced 1/2 white onion. and diced chunk bacon that is soft/slow cooked in some butter and then added into the cabbage to to stew with the other veggies for about 30 mins or so. goes terrific with some buttered french bread for dipping.

Re: blanching: with the normal cabbage, you often have to simmer the whole entire head just to get the leaves to loosen enough that they can be peeled off.

This actually looks really good! I have an easier method for separating the cabbage leaves though - from making cabbage rolls. You core the cabbage and place it in a pot of boiling water. As the cabbage leaves soften on the outside remove each leaf one at a time with a pair of tongs/pickups to a plate. They are ready just when they start to soften and you can wiggle them off from the core or thick end of the leaf stem. As you get closer to the middle or end you may need to use a knife to cut them at the stem end, but it's no big deal. They stay whole this way and don't tear, then soften and blanche at the same time :)

Jamie, I have to say that you’re my absolute favorite channel on KZread. I’ve recently started cooking more seriously, and I get so much enjoyment out of watching you make these recipes!

Jamie, the point of the first "you don't need to blanch the cabbage" is that with many cabbages you need to quickly blanch them in order to peel off the leaves, otherwise they break. The first blanching helps release the leaves from the whole head. Then you need to blanch them again to make them pliable. With the savoy, you don't usually need to do the first blanching, as the leaves come off easily.

When you were sad it was heartbreaking, but at the end I was overjoyed with you at the results. This is seriously as moving as some epic tale. ❤ Also wow, scary long recipe, but I should try simplified somewhat version)

Caraway and cabbage pair really nicely. In Austria we often use it for cabbage salad with boiled potatoes. It’s delicious! Especially when the potatoes are still a bit warm.

Your perseverance is inspiring Jamie. Keep on keeping on. ❤

Taiwanese flat cabbage also works very well for recipes like this. It's not quite as good as savoy cabbage, but it's a bit cheaper and sometimes easier to find. My local farmers market has flat cabbage for like $0.79/lb, and it's usually very nice.

Thumbs up for flawless presentation for sure! Well done Jamie!

A huge cabbage roll !!! Nummmmmmm Great job 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

You are absolutely the best program on KZread I love watching your show. I did attempt to make this recipe about 3 months ago and it is a huge undertaking I literally worked on this for 6 hours finally figuring out how to place the cabbage leaves, but it was a battle I ended up also using the left over smaller leaves and stuffing because there was a large amount making cabbage rolls which were just as good. I truly believe you should have your own television series your the best. Thank you so much for all your hard work.

Thanks for posting another great one, Jamie!

Looks delicious! Now I need to make stuffed cabbage😊

Love it! My grandparents were both Polish, so my father (their son) was too. That meant a good amount of Polish and Eastern European cuisine during my upbringing when visiting Grandma & Grandpa. Individual servings of this dish, basically stuffed cabbage or “pigs in a blanket” were served regularly. They were topped with the stewed tomatoes. Very hearty meal that always smelled-up the house and usually gave everyone gas, courtesy of the cabbage. But man was it worth it! My humble opinion is that JC’s recipe is overly complicated, you’ll get the same taste going the stuffed cabbage route. Less headache.

I’ve started bingeing this series now for absolutely no reason and it makes me very hungry

Looks amazing. Fantastic job!

I know the recipe was a bear to make, but man does it look GOOD. Wish I had a plate of that bad boy. Bravo! 👏

What do I do at 11:44 at night? Watch KZread videos and wish I had the energy and passion to make a dish like this. Although occasionally you can find me dancing around in my wheelchair singing oldies at the top of my voice and forcing my hubby and daughter to hide in fear. But I think that’s only when the moon is full. 😊❤️👩‍🍳🥰

Caraway seeds! They are my favourite ingredient to add to most everything, especially if you can grind them up a bit first.

I so love these videos ❤

The general chaos of this series has helped me sleep on several of my worst nights. Keep going, Jaimie. I believe in you.

That looks amazing!!!!

I love the one that Jacques and Julia did together. It is very doable. This one looks like an epic challenge.

"Can I not read?" Was really relatable 😂 and the whole time i was thinking this seems like one giant cabbage roll. looks yummy

Truth: my life sucks right now. Thank God for your channel. I haven't had this much fun in a very long time. Thank you for the distraction. Thank you for being you. Thank you for all your effort. Thank you for your humor, humility, and resilience. I can't wait for the next episode. I'm raising a glass of Rose' to you now....P.S. at 11:44 at night, I am watching all the epic episodes I missed.

This reminds me of gołąbki (dish of Polish cuisine), just a lot more complicated 😆

I wonder if he needed a bigger mold. Edit to add: She turned a cabbage roll into a savory cake.
