Braised Savoy Cabbage with Canadian Bacon

Normally I would make soup with savoy cabbage, but since it’s summer, unless its gazpacho, I don’t particularly want soup.

So, I did something a little different:


First, put a pot of salt water on to boil.


Take 2 medium onions, or 1 medium onion and two small onions if your garden is still short on the larger onions. . .

(Generally when using Canadian Bacon for flavor, you would only use a slice or two, I use the whole package.)

Put the onions and bacon in a skillet with melted butter

Wash the cabbage, throwing out the rough outer leaves and hard core.

Put it in the boiling water for about 1 minute then turn off the heat and let it cool.

When the cabbage has cooled, drain it and cut it into smaller pieces, 6 to 8 per leaf.

And place it in the skillet with the onions and bacon, which now should look something like this:

Let the cabbage cook for about 10 minutes, add salt and pepper to taste, and then it’s done!
