About

The major difference between stuffed cabbage and most other stuffed vegetables is that cabbage is inevitably cooked in a sauce; you can use the sweet-and-sour sauce here or simply simmer the leaves in Fast, Fresh Tomato Sauce. Serve either with crusty bread or, if your filling does not have much rice, over rice.

Cabbage leaves also may be filled and stuffed exactly as you would grape leaves and served hot or cold, again as you would grape leav
