Remove the outside leaves of the cabbage, cut into quarters and then chop, not too finely. Put to soak in cold water for a half hour or more, if possible. Toss into boiling salted water and cook uncovered for from 20 minutes to one hour, the time varying according to the age and condition of the cabbage. Toward the latter part of the cooking, allow most of the water to evaporate. Season with butter, allowing one tablespoon to a pint of cabbage.
1 pint chopped cabbage.
2 tablespoons flour.
2 tablespoons butter 1/4 teaspoon salt.
1 cup milk.
Chop the cabbage not too finely, and cook in salted water until tender, then drain. Make a white sauce by rubbing together the flour and butter and adding a little hot milk. Then add the remainder of the hot milk and salt, and cook in a double boiler twenty minutes. Mix this white sauce with the cooked cabbage, reheat and serve.
