Fried Cabbage
Parboil a fine cabbage. When half-boiled, take it out, drain it, and lay it awhile in cold water, to remove the cabbage smell. Next put it into a clean pot of fresh water, and boil it again till thoroughly done. Afterwards, chop it small, season it with pepper and salt, and fry it in fresh butter.
A less delicate way is to fry it in boiling lard, taking care to drain it well. It should be eaten only by people in good health.
