  1. For any cabbage roll, freeze your cabbage first. Then thaw..takes a day or so...and your cabbage will be ready to roll. NO steaming, no extra work at all. Molly
     
  2. You have to cook you rice and then add it to the ground beef. If you don't the rice will suck all the moisture out of the ground beef and anything else it can find to cook it self. with dry rice your cabbage rolls will be so dry you can't eat them. Believe me I've been making them for 20 years.
     
  3. I liked this recipe. The sour cream was a condiment I had never considered! I was hoping the bacon would add some extra flavor to this recipe, as I have tried many. For my taste buds, it did not. Maybe it was b/c I crumbled it? I altered the sauce topping a bit, adding some brown sugar and lemon juice. Overall, it was a dandy dish!
