To all my fellow Haluski lovers! With today being Ash Wednesday I thought I would go back to my childhood and prepare my favorite delicious "lenten" dish. Just throwing it out there for anyone that gets a craving after reading this...it is still early enough to stop at the store!!! {#emotions_dlg.lol}{#emotions_dlg.biggrin}

I always put bacon in mine, so I guess its not really a Lenten dish at my house...But I DO love it!

Okay, I haven't a clue. What is Haluski and what goes into making it?

I think it is cabbage and egg noodles. Here is a recipe that I found.

I fry up bacon and onions and cabbage, then add the noodles - and I use parmesan cheese- I don't know if this is "traditional" or not..but it sure is good!

Thank you for posting the recipe luvsbulldogs. I do make mine exactly that way with the exception of putting it in the oven. I serve it from the pot after it has cooked together a few minutes.

stilltamn8r my brother does his with bacon too! We never had it that way growing up since it was usually on Fridays, but it sure is delicious!!!

My old next door neighbor's Polish/Greek Orthodox mother used to make this dish and it caused me to swoon....she would put in just a scant sprinkling of sugar and it made the cabbage taste exquisite. This is definitely a comfort food for everybody: I'm even thinking about making it for Passover using Kosher for Passover noodles (like, this dish is not on the light side to begin with and now I'm going to make it more calorie dense!).

There's one small problem though: I don't remember how Baba made it. I think the sauteed cabbage in a healthy amount of butter-sometimes she even let the butter brown a little and well-that just sent this dish over the moon. Then, she added cooked fettucine type noodles. Does this sound right?

Thanks,

We don't make our huluski with egg noddles we make home made little dumplings and mix it with our cabbage 1 cup flour. 2 beaten eggs, salt, pepper, add enough water to make dough. Have a pot of boiling water on the stove. Put some dough on a plate and use a knife to cut little dough off the plate in to the boiling water when all the dough mixture is dropped into the boiling water let them cook till they come to the top of the water drain in colander rinse in cold water so they don't get mushy. after they are drained well then add them to your cabbage and inions. For each cup of flour you use you will need at least 2 eggs. Some people even grate fresh potato's in their dough mixture. This is real huluski my grandmother if she was alive would be 126 years old and this is how she made them she was from Poland.My Mom would be 101 and this is how she made them. Have fun making them.
