Eggplant is underrated IMO. Roast it, grill it, turn it into baba dip

>sauteing cabbage
I've literally only had it raw (and eat a fair bit of it like that) or pickled. What is sauteed like and how do I prepare it?

>>16887732

If I wanted a link I'd Google it, I want to know how YOU do it anom

>>16887748
honestly i like to put it in a pan dry and move it around until the edges have browned slightly, but that's some real boring purist shit, would not recommend.
saute in olive oil and add a pinch of salt at the end.

Do people outside of Germany even eat Kohlrabi? I find it strange that it doesn't has a proper English name.

Just slice it up and fry it.

>>16887748
boil it, mash it, stick it in a stew

>>16887854
why the fuck is butternut squash specifically on all these. it's almost the worst squash.

>>16887055

Good tomatoes are god tier
Little salt on top and good quality extra virgin olive oil

Also red cabbage for extra polyphenols

>>16887756
Yeah I do, I'm American. I've found it at farmers markets near me; it's pretty darn good. They're usually about 2-3$ for one.

Try endives. Not sure if these are even a thing in US cause I never see recipes using it? Uncooked the lower part has a slightly bitter taste, the tips are slightly sweet. That alone makes it great for all kinds of salads. (Disclaimer, childish palates won't like the bitter parts.) Delicious especially with fish when steamed or baked.

itt: fruits and veggies

>>16887008
broccoli, brussel sprouts, cauliflower, eggplant are some of my favorites

>>16889524
kohlrabi: just eat it raw with salt

>>16887092
I dont get the love for avocados as a non americans. They just taste like flavourless oil. They taste a bit if you add salt but not much.

>>16892607
They're in the USA just usually at higher end restaurants or grocery stores. I've had em before, they're pretty good

>>16894858
Alone they're not amazing, it's more what they can do when added to other things. Apart from guacamole which is great, avocados are very good on egg sandwiches, burgers, turkey sandwiches, and BLTs. That's where the fatty oil texture and taste comes into play. Also good in salads.

>>16887008
Don’t forget to add a bay leaf to it. Bay leaves and cabbages are best friends.

I can easily demolish a whole tray of roasted Brussels. They're so fucking good anons, truly a top tier vegetable. It's crazy how cooking them wrong makes them nearly inedible, compare roasted to boiled. Difference is fuckhueg

EBIN :DDDD

If you have cabbage you can make okonomiyaki with very simple ingredients you probably have in the kitchen already.

>shredded/sliced cabbage
>sliced green onions
>flour
>water
>soy sauce for flavor
>mix in bowl
>spread out in pan like a pancake
>place bacon or ham slices on top
>flip and cook other side with the bacon/ham

Top with mayo and okonomiyaki sauce if you have it, but you don't have to overcomplicate it, it's pretty delicious on its own. Used to make this every day for breakfast, I could whip an okonomiyaki up from scratch in 10 min.

The Roman Empire literally ran on Cabbage.
Roman Doctors classified Cabbage types for different medical use and Emperor Diocletian spent the rest of his life farming Cabbage in his private Palace garden after abdicating.

In Norway, we eat lots of Kålrabi. We eat it in lapskaus (stew), as part of a general root vegetable roast or everyone's favorite which is mashed kålrabi. Mashed kålrabi is just like mashed potatoes, it's very delicious and usually eaten around Jul.

>>16887008
Okonomiyaki. Basically weird Japanese Pizza-like thingie made from 90% Cabbage, egg and flour.

>>16887008
>sauteed cabbage
Absolutely disgusting.

It's good
1) Raw and in chunks
2) Salad with a thick dressing, like caesar or youghurt
3) As a sauerkraut, cold winter snack.
