Miss Mary Bobo's Cabbage Threads
with Buttered Crumbs

Ingredients

• 1 small head cabbage
• 4 tablespoons butter
• 2 teaspoons caraway seeds, crushed
• 1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
• 1/2 teaspoon + 1 tablespoon salt
• 2 teaspoons granulated sugar

Instructions

1. Cut the cabbage in half and place it, cut side down, on a cutting board. Slice the cabbage into thin shreds like delicatessen slaw.
2. Melt the butter in a large skillet, stir in the caraway seeds, breadcrumbs and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring constantly, until lightly browned. Set aside.
3. Bring a large pot of water with the sugar and 1 tablespoon of salt to a boil. Add the cabbage. Cook for 4 minutes. Drain well.
4. Stir the cabbage into the skillet with the crumbs. Reheat for just a minute and pour onto a serving dish. Taste and add salt if necessary.
5. Serve hot.
