Spareribs with Cabbage

Procure six pieces salted spareribs. Plunge in plenty of cold water for thirty minutes. Remove the outer leaves of a medium-sized white cabbage cut into even quarters, suppress the stalks, and place in a saucepan with one gallon hot water. Season with a teaspoon salt and half teaspoon white pepper. Cover the pan and let slowly boil for forty-five minutes, then add the ribs, cover the pan again, and let slowly cook for forty-five minutes longer. Add six medium, sound, peeled raw potatoes and boil for forty minutes. Lift up the cabbage, arrange on a large dish, place the potatoes around the cabbage, then the ribs on top and serve.
