Cabbage
Boil a firm white cabbage for fifteen minutes in salted water; pour off the water and add fresh water; boil until tender; set aside until cold; chop finely. Butter a baking dish and fill with the chopped cabbage. Make a sauce with these ingredients: One tablespoonful of butter, one tablespoonful flour, one-half pint of water in which the cabbage was cooked, salt, pepper, four tablespoonfuls of grated cheese. Stir all the sauce ingredients except the cheese, over the fire until smooth. Season with salt and pepper, add the cheese. Pour the sauce over the cabbage and bake for seven minutes in a quick oven. Serve in the dish.
