17 Cabbage Recipes That Turn This Humble Vegetable into an All-Week Dinner

Seupa vapellenentse isn’t your standard bowl of broth: it’s a dish that’s essentially a layered casserole disguised as soup. It starts with savoy cabbage, a variety that’s a little sweeter and more tender than standard green cabbage. When braised with lardo or pancetta, onion and a bay leaf, the cabbage melts into soft, silky ribbons to which the flavorful broth clings. A long, gentle simmer brings out its natural sweetness, which pairs well with salt and pork fat.
