Description

📕 Get the full cookbook - The Lunch Lady's $3,600-a-Year Grocery Cut (175 recipes & tricks, scaled for 1, 2 or a family): http://dorislunchlady.com/ Seventy-nine cents a pound, and most of us were taught to boil the good right out of it.  You already know the first half of this. Cabbage makes its own water. Your mother knew that and her mother knew it before her, and I am not going to stand here and sell you back something you have had since you were nine years old.  What nobody ever handed you is the two numbers underneath it.  They are on a government page for school kitchens, they have been sitting there in the open for decades, and the first one is the weight of the onion. When I say it out loud you are going to think I misread it. Two numbers to write on a card. TWO BIG ONIONS to one head of cabbage, sliced, and they go in the fat by themselves first. ONE ROUNDED TABLESPOON OF SUGAR, and it goes in with the onions at the beginning, never on the cabbage. #schoolcafeteria #lunchlady
