Fried cabbage??
Never heard of it....is it any good? BTW....I love broccoli,beets and canned tomatoes,but I can't STAND brussels sprouts!!
I've tried drowning them in ketchup,butter,vinegar,etc. or just salt & peppered....no good.They have a sharp,bitter taste to me,very unpleasant.

If you fry it in a little bacon fat it is.

Stir-fried cabbage, done in an iron skillet or wok, is very tasty. I like mine wilted, but not cooked to totally limp. Seasoned heavily with Tony's while frying, preferably with some bacon grease or maybe bacon itself cut into small pieces.

Last year I planted a variety of brussel sprouts that were very mild, not bitter or sharp, and they changed my mind about brussel sprouts. I also read somewhere that lack of adequate water during growth can make them more bitter tasting.

Chop cabbage into manageable pieces. Drop a large tablespoon of bacon grease into skillet, then cabbage. Cook until tender. Salt and pepper to taste.
