Cabbage – Repollo
Cabbage is a major staple of Dominican cuisine. There are many dishes made from, or including cabbage. My mother’s step-mother was Syrian/Lebanese/Dominican and my mother grew up eating wonderful middle-eastern dishes, which in turn she cooked for us. We ate cabbage almost every day growing up in salads, boiled then served with butter and Parmesan, stuffed rolls, one of my favorites, shredded in the salad, etc.
