As soon as those crisp fall breezes arrive, I just crave hearty, comforting meals like this German Cabbage and Dumpling stew. Chock full of history and old world flavor, it’s the perfect pick-me-up on a chilly night!
. A Dish With Roots
This hearty combo of simple ingredients has been passed down over generations. Originating with German settlers who immigrated to the harsh lands along Russia’s Volga River back in the 1700s.
Just imagine – using hardy crops like cabbage, potatoes and wheat to create filling dishes that could sustain families through bitterly cold winters. Talk about comfort food!
Now, my version uses only cabbage and chewy, rustic dumplings simmered in a savory broth. But the soul-warming magic remains the same!
. Dumplings That Hit The Spot
I just love how the dense, peppery dumplings contrast with the tender sweetness of the cabbage. Here’s how to make them:
. Mix flour, spices, eggs and a touch of milk for the dough
. Form tablespoon sized dumplings and drop into boiling water
. Once they float to the top, they’re ready!
Then pop them into the aromatic cabbage broth for a hearty bite in every spoonful.
. Cabbage That Will Melt Your Heart
This dish is so simple but WOW does it satisfy. Let me walk you through it:
. Sauté onions in butter until caramelized
. Add cabbage, stock and seasonings and let simmer
. Add in the cooked dumplings and heat through
That’s it! The results are totally soul warming.
Girls, I hope you’ll give this a try soon. It’s the perfect meal for chilly nights when you crave a taste of history. Let me know if it fills you up with that old world comfort like it does me! Stay cozy!
