Cabbage Stir Fry

Time to see if this Early Jersey Wakefield cabbage is ready to eat:

Sliced it open, it is not filled out as I would have liked or expected – the head did feel pretty firm when I squeezed it before harvest.

This tiny cabbage still made a very good stir fry, with an entire onion and garden garlic thrown in. I always like to use some sesame seed oil when stir frying – it has such a nice smoky way about it. We added Kikoman stir fry sauce and served it on La Choy chow mein noodles. (It was half eaten when I remembered to take a pic – Blog life!) This may not be the best pic, but the stuff was very good. It is the first time I stir fried only cabbage, but only because all of the other goodies like squash and peppers aren’t done yet, or even planted for that matter.

Dinner time - stir fry

It doesn’t get much better.  (I did add a bit of sliced, roasted beef so as to please the rest of the household – and I serve stir fry on a bed of chow mein noodles.)
