👨🍳 Istruzioni
- 1
Rinse the pickled cabbage thoroughly under cold water. Chop it into large pieces. Place the chopped cabbage in a large bowl, cover with fresh water, and soak for at least 2-3 hours (or overnight in the refrigerator) to reduce saltiness and sourness. Drain well.
- 2
In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the diced onions and sauté until softened and lightly browned, about 5-7 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- 3
Add the paprika, salt, black pepper, whole peppercorns, and bay leaves to the pot. Stir for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
- 4
Add the drained pickled cabbage, smoked pork ribs, bacon, and dried smoked beef to the pot. Stir to combine with the onion and spice mixture.
- 5
Pour in 3 cups of water (or enough to mostly cover the ingredients). If using Vegeta, stir it in now. Bring the mixture to a boil.
- 6
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot tightly, and simmer for 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the cabbage is tender and the meats are cooked through and falling apart. Stir occasionally, adding more water if the stew becomes too dry.

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot, traditionally with cornbread.
