Pointed Cabbage Sous Vide

My suggestion for the perfect way to cook pointed cabbage. First, it is gently cooked in sous vide and then grilled hard at the end.

Equipment

  • Cutting Board
  • Knife
  • Sous Vide
  • Grill (option 1)
  • Grill Pan (option 2)
  • Frying Pan (option 3)

Ingredients

  • 0.5 pcs. Pointed Cabbage
  • Salt and Pepper
  • 0.5 l Buttermilk can be omitted
  • Pickled red onions
  • Salsa can be omitted

Instructions

  • Rinse your cabbage to remove soil or similar.
  • Cut it lengthwise and then cut it again lengthwise so you have 2 quarters. I usually say 1 quarter per person.
  • Season the cabbage with salt and pepper and put it in a bag. Pour buttermilk until it is covered.
  • Let it marinate for a couple of hours, I suggest a minimum of 2 hours and preferably up to 4-6 hours. If you don't have buttermilk, you can still make the dish without marinating beforehand, but you will need to add butter, oil, or another fat to your vacuum bag.
  • Rinse the cabbage under a cold tap and pat it dry with a clean tea towel.
  • Season with salt and pepper and vacuum pack it.
  • Cook it for 30 minutes at 85 degrees Celsius (185 degrees Fahrenheit),
  • Carefully remove the cabbage from the vacuum bag and dry it thoroughly.
  • Fry the cabbage on very high heat, either on a grill, griddle, or pan on all 3 sides. Give it a bit more time on the outer side until it almost gets burnt - you can always remove the outer leaf.
