Me too..love cabbage with butter...this sounds nice with the sour cream :yum:

This is a recipe I came across years ago in a restaurant in San Francisco. I asked the cook about it and he told me. We like it and it's so easy I make it often. You can use white pepper too for a milder flavor :yum:

simmering very low-slow, will the cabbage soften without caramelizing as it sautes (slowly) in butter? are we going for soft or browned cabbage? i/ve never had my cabbage with sour cream before, should be good that way, though.:)

and i'm with jaques pepin--i like black pepper better than white pepper, regardless of the color or nature of the food being prepared.

We cook our cabbage this way all the time .. but have never put in sour cream ... sounds so yummy !

Sometimes he likes it browned a bit so I get to "burn" his food from time to time :)
 
It is such a nice idea the sour cream...after all these years of cooking cabbage, had never thought of it...must be a restaurant thing ;)
