While any cabbage can be used for this dish, I especially love the texture and flavor of good old-fashioned, standard-issue, hyper-affordable green cabbage. It yields at least 8 cups of cooked veg and makes an awesome platform for fried eggs the next day. Or mash the cabbage with potatoes for a version of the Irish dish Colcannon. <br /> <br />Excerpted from Mad Hungry: Feeding Men and Boys by Lucinda Scala Quinn (Artisan Books). Copyright © 2009.
