Astoria Cabbage

The Astoria was one of Phil's favorite restaurants when he lived in Lynchburg. This recipe, shared with him as a birthday present, was one of the Astoria's many distinctive side dishes.

1/3 head of cabbage 1/2 c. vegetable stock
1 T. butter 1 T. ground cumin
1 T. carraway seed 1 pinch salt
  1. Preparing the cabbage entails discarding tough or wilted outer leaves and trimming away the core. We "shred" by cutting the head into more manageable wedges and slicing them, every 1/4 to 1/2 inch.

  2. Heat the stock in a large skillet. Add the cabbage and toss thoroughly. Cover the skillet tightly and "steam" for 10 minutes.

  3. Add the butter and seasonings, stir, and serve.
