Serbian Cabbage

I've had this magazine recipe in my collection for years. I try others, but I keep returning to this simple baked cabbage like an old friend.

ingredients
- 1 medium head of cabbage (shredded fine)
- 1⁄4 - 1⁄2 cup chopped onion (optional)
- 12 ounces evaporated milk (like Carnation)
- 1 cup dry breadcrumbs
- 1⁄2 cup butter, cut in small pieces (you might use a bit less)
directions
- Place cabbage and onions in a shallow 4 quart buttered casserole.
- Pour the milk over and sprinkle with the breadcrumbs; dot with butter and sprinkle with paprika.
- Cover and bake at 350°F for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake an additional 30 minutes or until crumbs are golden brown, and cabbage is tender.
- You can probably substitute low fat or non fat evaporated milk, but don't use regular milk. Some magic will occur, and the cabbage develops a wonderful creamy consistency. (The original recipe states unsuspecting guests won't even recognize it as the "dreaded" cabbage, but I don't think I'd go that far.).
- I just say it's Comfort Food at it's finest.

We enjoyed this cabbage dish tonight for dinner. My cabbage didn't get as tender as I expected, but it was still very good, but on the crunchy side (which is perfectly fine). I think the dish could use some additional seasoning. Will definitely make this dish again. : ) Made for the Football Pool, October, 2014.Reply

I also had the recipe from the 4/5/1983 Woman's Day but never made it until tonight. I used two 10 oz packages of Fresh Express Angel Hair Cole Slaw and a small can of 2% evaporated milk along with half of the bread crumbs and butter. It was very different and very good I will make this again very soon. It does need salt though. Can't believe I had this recipe for so many years and never made it. I missed out on a great recipe for many years. Try it, you won't believe your eating cabbage.Replies 2
