Halubi

My Mom used to make this when I was a kid.
The whole house would smell like it.
I haven't had it in 30+ years.
I think I am going to try it this week.

Halupki?

[Claire]

Definitely what my husband's family would call halupke, my family would call "stuffed cabbage", most Polish friends would call something like gwampkee (excuse my spelling, I'm going by sound). I make a huge batch of this every winter using my MIL's recipe, my own mother's, and my mom's best friend's. I have a friend of eastern European background, and who has no teeth left (she's 80). For her I chop it up and make a soup of it. It is very popular with my friends and my husband, a great middle-of-the-winter dish.

My mom has some slovak roots.It is probably the exact same thing with a different dialect.I remember everyone liking it when I was younger.

My mother-in-law's parents were Slovakian, father-in-laws were Slovene, so the word I learned was probably a mish-mash.

Why do you not cover the pot? do you have to keep adding sauce as it cooks down?

[4meandthem]

I don't remember it being uncovered.I would just see how it goes.If the sauce is getting too thick or doesn't completly cover the cabbage then throw a cover on.

we have had few threads about this. There some really good recipes there too. If you care to search for it. I'll see if I can find mine.

Stuffed Cabbage - Another variation of a dish that crosses borders.

My Mom's version, which comes from our Armenian heritage is simmered in a pot (water added) but not tomato topping. It's served with plain yogurt as a sauce.
