Each hostess has developed her own method of preparing cabbage for cabbage rolls.
However, some may not like the fact that this process is long and complicated.
Details
After all, in order to divide a head of cabbage into leaves, you need patience.
There are three simple methods that will help to significantly simplify this task.
Freezing
Under the influence of cold temperatures, the structure of cabbage noticeably changes for the better: it will not be difficult to separate the head of cabbage into leaves.
In addition, this will allow the cabbage leaves to become softer and noticeably tastier in the process.
Cooking with a secret
The roughest part of the cob is the most difficult to process, so it should be removed with a sharp knife at the beginning.
After that, keep the cabbage in hot water for 4-5 minutes. Cabbage leaves will separate easily.
It is not necessary to throw away the leftover vegetables: they can be stewed together with the rest of the dish, having previously chopped them.
Microhvilov pich
Many housewives like to use a microwave oven in order to simplify the cooking process. This technique also works for cabbage.
It is necessary to send the cob to the microwave oven for five minutes. Power is better to choose the maximum.
Then you should put the cabbage in a colander and turn on cold water. After a few minutes, the vegetable can be separated into leaves.
