FINNISH LIHAKAALILAATIKKO - MEAT AND CABBAGE CASSEROLE
Absolutely delicious! It's what I make when I want creamy cabbage rolls, but is much easier to make. Good for potlucks! Adapted from a recipe from "The Finnish Cookbook" by Beatrice A. Ojakangas.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a large pot, simmer the cabbage in boiling water to cover until tender-crisp, about 5 to 7 minutes; drain.
- Remove from heat and add the onion, butter, syrup, salt, white pepper, marjoram, allspice, and nutmeg and stir well to combine.
- In another bowl, mix together the ground beef, bread crumbs, milk, and eggs.
- Butter a 2-quart casserole dish.
- Place a layer of the cabbage mixture into the dish, then a layer or meat mixture; repeat until mixtures are used up, ending with the cabbage.
- Sprinkle with the Parmesan then bake at 350 degrees F for 1 hour.
- Let sit for 5 minutes before serving, then serve alongside lingonberries, cranberry sauce, or currant jelly.
- Note: this is also good with 3/4 lb ground beef and 1/4 lb ground pork; you can also mix in about 1/2 cup of tomato-based pasta sauce into the cabbage mixture, if you're wanting tomato.

Steps:
- Cook the rice in the beef broth until half done. Set aside.
- Cut off the stem end of the cabbage. Place the cabbage into a large pan of boiling water. Remove the leaves from the water as soon as they start to separate. Save the large leaves for stuffing, but cut off any tough parts of the leaves. Shred the smaller leaves, to use in the stuffing.
- Mix all stuffing ingredients, including the cooked rice, until smooth. Use some of the cabbage water if necessary to mix everything until smooth.
- Put some stuffing into each large leaf and roll up like a parcel Seal the edges with the egg white. The rolls should be small and thin.
- Brown the rolls in the butter, in a frying pan.
- Pack the rolls into a baking pan.
- Rinse the frying pan with some of the cabbage water and pour over the rolls in the baking pan. The rolls should be about half submerged in liquid.
- Drizzle the rolls with the golden syrup and bake at 350F for 1 1/2 hours.
- Turn them once during baking and add more of the cabbage cooking water, if they are getting too dried out.
- Add 1-2 tbsp of cream to the sauce left in the baking pan after removing the rolls. Spoon the sauce over the cooked rolls to serve.

FINNISH CABBAGE AND TOFU OVER RICE
This is from "Sundays at Moosewood," with a few minor changes. The recipe as written calls for pressed tofu, but I like to freeze the tofu instead. When it's thawed and the moisture has been squeezed out, the texture changes to chewy and firm, rather than slippery and mushy. I always use the one-pound blocks stored in water, rather than the silken type.

Steps:
- To prepare the tofu:.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F Combine the marinade ingredients in a 9-inch baking dish. Cut the tofu into cubes or triangles. Place the tofu in the baking dish with the marinade.
- Bake, turning the tofu two or three times during the baking. Bake for 35-45 minutes.
- To prepare the cabbage:.
- While the tofu is baking, saute the onion in the oil in a large heavy skillet. When the onion is almost translucent, add the cabbage. Stirring occasionally, saute until the cabbage is somewhat reduced, about 5 minutes, but don't let the onion brown.
- Combine the sauce ingredients and pour the over the cabbage, stirring to coat. Remove from the heat. Cover the skillet with a lid or foil, and bake in a 375 F oven for 30 minutes.
- Serve the cabbage over rice or mashed potatoes (barley or egg noodles could be used instead). Top with minced pickle and baked tofu. Add a spoonful of sour cream, if desired.
