When preparing cabbage rolls, every little detail can be important, as it will have a direct impact on the taste of the dish.
It is important not only to work on the minced meat correctly, although the role of the filling should not be underestimated.
But even the juiciest and most flavorful meat will not save the situation if the cabbage is tough and unprepared.
How to Make Vegetable Leaves Softer
There are many methods that are popular among cooks. However, an experienced housewife will always choose the simplest one. This will help reduce the effort required to prepare the dish.
Making cabbage leaves soft is not that difficult if you know one secret method.
You will need to take the cabbage head and select the leaves that you will use to make the cabbage rolls. The excessively tough parts should be cut off, as they will not be softened properly anyway.
After this, we put the selected leaves in the freezer.
Then all that remains is to wait for the desired degree of softening. Thanks to this, the cabbage rolls will melt in your mouth: the cabbage will be tender, soft and delicious.
