    This took some time bit didn't require too much attention while it cooked. I reduced the creme fraiche to 56 grams because I sometimes don't like very rich dishes, and thought it was plenty creamy and saucy. (Of course size of cabbage is a factor.) I took the time to juice 2 tomatoes but I don't think I will do that in the future as it was very pale. A spoonful of passage perked it up, and I would just use a couple of spoonfuls of puree or passata in the future.

    Takes a while to braise but rather easy. Better as a side dish than a main with bread. Don’t worry about over seasoning

    Oh, how I love this. I often make a vegan crème fraiche from cashew nuts, to use in place of the dairy version.

    Maybe not quite “of dreams,” but still a very tasty cabbage dish! Ate with rye bread and stewed lentils.

    This cabbage is so unusual and delicious! We ate it with fresh bread, which was great dunked in the sauce. My whole family loved it.

    Phenomenally good, but do note it took forever (as it does) for the onions to caramelize, so plan to have this going a while on your stove. Outstanding nonetheless.
