Braised cabbage hood with lemon scent

Braised cabbage hood with lemon scent

When I pointed this cabbage cap (Brassica oleracea var.capitata f. Sunrise) I like to present it to the table as well, dressed with butter, lemon scent.

It's a fairly brisk preparation but extremely tasty: well alone is a perfect accompaniment to many dishes.

Here's how to prepare it, as always starting from the ingredients:

Ingredients:

a cabbage pointed hood, ca. g. 500
salted butter g. 50
vegetable broth cm3 120
lemon zest TS. 1
lemon juice cm3 30
salt and pepper q.s.
nutmeg q.s.
parsley (optional) Ad Lib.

Cut the cabbage into four cloves and then remove part of the core, taking care to leave enough to keep the leaves together.

Melt some butter in a pan and as soon as it is warm you brown the cabbage wedges on both sides for a few minutes.

Add the vegetable stock, season with salt and pepper and put the lid.

Cook over medium heat for about ten minutes.

Separately, in a saucepan, brown the rest of the butter on a medium-low heat, add the zest and lemon juice, season with salt, pepper and a fine grated nutmeg.

Arrange the slices of cabbage in a dish, sprinkle with lemon butter and, wanting to give an extra touch, sprinkle with plenty of chopped parsley.
