Haluski Noodles & Cabbage

Another recipe from my past and one that even I can manage:

Play some good Slovak music on a CD while you cook. I like to have Del Sinchak playing. Tex-Mex or Texas-Czech/Bohemian music also works very well.

Cook a one-pound package of medium or wide noodles. I usually use egg noodles. Drin them.

Chop one head of cabbage that weighs maybe three pounds or so very fine a fry in butter 'til it browns. I like to keep mine a little crunchy, but not everyone does.

Perhaps you would like to add some fennel, onion, or caraway. You don't have to do this, but it's a nice touch. If you're aedding caraway seeds add a tablespoon or two of vinegar. At that point it isn't haluski. Who cares?

Mix the noodles and the cabbage together.

Pour about 6 tablespoons of melted butter over it all.

Have a good hot sausage with it. Wash it down with a good union-made dark beer

Avoid the scale or blood pressure monitors or a visit to the doctor for about a month.
