Haluski (Cabbage and Noodles)
Description
Haluski (Cabbage and Noodles) features thick-cut chopped bacon cooked until nearly crisp, providing a smoky base. Butter and onions are then added and sautéed until translucent, adding sweetness and depth. Bite-sized pieces of green cabbage are gently cooked covered until tender but retaining slight crunch, keeping the texture fresh and pleasant.
Medium-wide egg noodles are cooked separately, drained, and then combined with the cabbage mixture along with remaining butter. The dish is finished with seasoning of salt and pepper and heated through, allowing flavors to meld. The resulting dish is a comforting blend of smoky, buttery, and earthy flavors with a mix of textures from the crisp-tender cabbage, soft noodles, and chewy bacon.
Haluski is commonly served warm, often freshly ground black pepper is added on serving for added spice and aroma. It can be garnished with fresh parsley for color and a hint of herbal brightness. Leftovers keep well refrigerated and reheat easily on stovetop or microwave.
Ingredients
- 6 lices Bacon thick cut, and chopped
- 6 tablespoon butter unsalted
- 2 large onion chopped
- 1½ pounds green cabbage cored and cut into bite size pieces
- ½ teaspoon salt or to taste
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper or to taste
- 1 pound egg noodles medium-wide
Instructions
- In a large Dutch oven cook the bacon until almost crisp.
- To the same Dutch oven add 3 tablespoons of the butter and melt. Add the onions and saute for 5 minutes until soft and translucent.
- Add the cabbage, salt and pepper, stir everything together and cook for 10 minutes covered, until the cabbage softens.
- Meanwhile, cook the noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
- Add the cooked noodles to the Dutch oven, remaining 3 tablespoons of butter and stir. Cook for a couple more minutes, until everything is heated through.
- Taste for seasoning and adjust with salt and pepper as necessary. Serve warm with lots of freshly ground black pepper.
Notes
- Use smoky meat substitutes if avoiding bacon for a vegetarian version.
- Other pasta like fettuccine or tagliatelle can replace egg noodles if desired.
- Cabbage should be cooked until just tender to keep a slight crunch and prevent mushiness.
- Best served warm with freshly ground black pepper; a sprinkle of fresh parsley adds color and flavor.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator up to 3-4 days; reheat on stovetop or microwave.
