TEARING CABBAGE

We all know that if you use a knive to cut lettuce it will cause it to turn brown. But did you know that if you tear cabbage with your hands which is sometimes hard to do, it will be more cruncy and taste more sweeter. That is a lot of tearing. Tear it into small pieces with your hands to stri fry or fry in a skillet.  This is what I have read. I am going to try it and see. lol. I know in the winter to me cabbage just don't have a good taste. To me it also has a smell that is different from cabbage out of the garden. We will see how this turns out. May have learned somthing new that is good to know. I know my aunt and I went on a diet and we ate enough cabbage to lose any kind of weight. I ate it till I was sick of it. She eats her cabbage with her fingers. I ask her why does she do this. She says it makes it tate better. Now she is a very clean person and I just could not see her eating cabbage with her fingers. lol. I tried it with a piece of cornbread. It is messy but to me it does taste better that way. Just don't have on a big new outfit as you just might ruin it. When I fry my cabbage I like to add some sugar to it. It helps bring out the flavor. Just add about a 1/2 teaspoon to a big pan. I don't put a lot of oil in mine but add some water and sort of stir fry it. I have now started eating cabbage again but about every time I eat it I think of our diet. Oh yeah, we did lose weight. Around 30 lbs.
