Growing up around the Rust Belt of northeastern Ohio, we ate haluski regularly. The dish harkens back to the Polish, Slovakian, Hungarian and German immigrants who settled in that part of the country\u2014especially areas around Cleveland, Youngstown and Pittsburgh, in the early 20th century.<\/p>\n
My mom often cooked up big batches of fried cabbage and egg noodles, sometimes adding potatoes, bacon or ham to stretch the meal. For her, it was an economical way to feed a horde of kids (one of us inevitably had one or two friends over for dinner). Today, I make haluski as a main course or a delicious side dish any time of year. It’s the ultimate comfort food<\/a>.<\/p>\n In general, haluski (pronounced ha-loosh-key<\/em>) is buttery, cooked cabbage combined with either dumplings or noodles; some recipes also add onion and meat like bacon or kielbasa.<\/p>\n My Slovak grandmother made her haluski with potato dumplings similar to Italian gnocchi (store-bought dumplings can be used). Noodles, especially easy-to-find egg noodles, are common in versions from other countries like Poland and Hungary. As with many dishes from Central and Eastern Europe, recipes vary depending on the countries of origin and family traditions.<\/p>\n Our recipe is an easy vegetarian version of cabbage and noodles that\u2019s super customizable to your own personal tastes.<\/p>\n In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the cabbage, cover it, and cook it on low until just tender, for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em> For this recipe, you can use pre-shredded cabbage or slice it yourself (here\u2019s how to shred cabbage<\/a> if you need a primer).<\/p>\n Meanwhile, cook the egg noodles according to the package directions. Drain the noodles.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em> Try not to overcook the noodles because they can get too soft in the final dish.<\/p>\n Stir the drained egg noodles into the skillet with the buttery cabbage. Season with salt and pepper, and mix well until everything is combined and heated through. Serve in bowls or alongside your favorite main course.<\/p>\n Because of the fried cabbage, haluski will last for up to three days in the refrigerator. Store it in a tightly covered container to keep the cabbage fresh and to prevent odors from seeping into other foods in the fridge.<\/p>\n Freezing noodles can cause them to get mushy, but you can preserve the fried cabbage in an airtight freezer-friendly container. When you want to use the cabbage, thaw it in the refrigerator overnight, add it to a pan with a little extra butter and combine it with cooked noodles.<\/p>\n You could use red cabbage for haluski, but we don\u2019t recommend it because the whole dish will turn purple. If that\u2019s the effect you’re after, then go for it! You can use other varieties of cabbage, including the softer and sweeter savoy or napa cabbage, but keep in mind there will be different cooking times. Here\u2019s more on how to cook cabbage<\/a> for any number of dishes.<\/p>\n Haluski can be a meal on its own, especially if you add some sort of protein to it, but haluski also makes a fantastic side dish for breaded pork chops<\/a>, any kind of sausage or kielbasa, baked ham or fried chicken<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Haluski, or buttery cabbage and noodles, is comfort food at its best.
