INGREDIENTS FOR OLD FASHIONED STUFFED CABBAGE ROLLS
If you have experience making this recipe, you’ll find most of the items on this ingredient list familiar. We’ve included a few additional ingredients to enhance the taste and add a unique touch.
Cabbage: A whole head of cabbage is required, and we recommend green cabbage due to its tenderness and pliability after a brief boiling.
Meat mixture: To make this dish, you will require a mixture of lean ground beef, pork sausage, and pre-cooked long-grain white rice. While certain recipes suggest using a single type of meat, we prefer the combination of both.
Spices: Creole seasoning is the main spice in this recipe, which provides a touch of spiciness to the finished dish. You can remove it completely without suffering any harmful effects.
Tomato sauce: Although some traditional recipes for cabbage rolls may suggest using tomato soup or bottled tomato juice, we are elevating our recipe by incorporating onion, bell pepper, celery, tomato paste, and crushed tomatoes to enhance both the texture and flavor. Additionally, the beef stock contributes to the sauce’s volume, ensuring there’s just enough to coat the bread.
Notably absent from these cabbage rolls is sugar. Unlike several cabbage roll recipes that call for brown sugar, omitting sugar gives these rolls a distinctly savory flavor.
