SARMA (STUFFED CABBAGE)
For this satisfying dish, cabbage leaves are stuffed with a seasoned mixture of rice, ground beef, pork and ham. They are then laid on a bed of sauerkraut and simmered to completion. This is the best stuffed cabbage recipe I've ever tried.

Steps:
- Place cabbage in the freezer for a few days. The night before making the rolls, take it out to thaw.
- In a large bowl, combine the beef, pork, ham, rice, onion, egg, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Mix well. Form meat mixture into oblong balls, using 1/2 cup of the mixture at a time. Then, wrap a cabbage leaf around each ball.
- Spread the sauerkraut in the bottom of a large pot, then layer cabbage rolls on top, placing them seam-side down. Pour tomato juice over rolls, then add enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for about 3 hours, adding more water as necessary.

Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Steam the head of cabbage until the outer leaves are limp, then cool slightly and separate the leaves.
- With a paring knife, remove the tough ribs from the leaves without damaging them. Reserve the tougher outer leaves, but don't use for rolling.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the ground chuck, ground pork, rice, and onion soup mix.
- Adding a small amount of water will make the mixture easier to handle.
- Heap 2 tablespoons of filling onto each steamed, prepared cabbage leaf.
- Fold the bottom of the cabbage leaf up over the meat.
- Fold sides to the center and roll away from yourself to encase completely.
- Repeat until the meat filling is gone.
- Heat oven to 350 F.
- Discard the cabbage core and coarsely chop any remaining cabbage except the tough outer leaves you have reserved.
- Spread the chopped cabbage on the bottom of a large casserole dish or Dutch oven. Add the drained sauerkraut.
- Layer on the cabbage rolls, seam-side down.
- Cut the smoked ribs into pieces. Space the ribs or other smoked meat of choice between the cabbage rolls.
- Cover rolls with reserved tough outer leaves.
- Mix tomato sauce and soup with enough water to make a liquidy consistency.
- Pour over rolls until mixture is level with rolls, but not over the top.
- Cover the casserole dish and bake 1 hour.
- Then reduce temperature to 325 F and bake for 2 more hours.
- Let sit 20 to 30 minutes before serving.
- This dish freezes well.

SERBIAN STUFFED CABBAGE
This recipe was given to me by a farmer neighbor. She grew up in a Serbian neighborhood, and said the Serbian name for this dish is Sarma. I always think of this kind lady whenever I make this dish...she and her husband always had a huge garden (one year they grew five different types of leaf lettuce!), and they were always very generous with their harvests.-Mrs. Arthur Goldberg, Goetzville, Michigan
