- Welcome to Bonita's Kitchen! Today we will be making Cabbage Rolls, made with fresh local green cabbage and so much more. See recipe below!
Our website link: www.bonitaskitchen.com
Our cookbooks link: www.bonitaskitchen.com/cookbook
Ingredients:
1½ lbs lean ground beef
1½ cups rice ( any type )
1 medium onion (chopped)
2 small cloves garlic (chopped) or 1 medium ( optional )
½ tsp pepper
Pinch sea salt
1 tsp onion powder
½ cup chopped salt beef ( optional )
1 large can crush tomato
1 can or bottle pasta sauce ( any type )
2 small carrots chopped ( optional )
1 medium or large green cabbage
1 cup water ( add to roaster if needed )
Method:
Pre-heat oven to 350°F
Cooking time 1½ hours.
Preparation time 1 hour.
Half fill a large boiler with cold water then place your full cabbage in boiler, cut off the large green leafs and place in the bottom of your boiler, add a pinch of sea salt, bring water to a boil. ( don't over cook your cabbage because you won't be able to roll them.)
Parboil cabbage until leafs are a little soft then cut each cabbage leaf off with a fork and knife and put on a plate to cool.
Tip From a viewer, March 14/18:
Bonita, an easier way to remove those leaves is to first remove most of the core BEFORE you place in the boiling water, and then when the boiled leaves are ready to remove use a large metal serving spoon (the rounded side) to slide up under the leaf from the cored end. Your leaves will lift off, and no boiling water will run onto your hands, nor will you accidentally tear the leaf with a fork or knife.
You can leave the cabbage in the boiler to continue cooking and remove leafs or remove the cabbage to cut each leaf.
Cut salt beef into small cubes cutting of any fat from beef, place in another small boiler and cook for about 45 minutes to 1 hour. Then drain off water from beef, please beef in a place to add with all your ingredients.
In large bowl add ground beef, rice, chopped onion, garlic, grated carrots, salt and pepper, onion powder, ½ bottle or can of pasta sauce and ½ can crush tomato's, chopped pre-cooked salt beef , mix all ingredients together.
Start by taking one cabbage leaf and scooping about ¼ cup of your beef and rice mixture into each leaf more if needed and roll it away from yourself, until all cabbage, beef and rice mixture is used.
In large roaster add a small amount of you pasta sauce and crush tomatoes in the bottom then layer each cabbage roll one way then the second layer the opposite way until their all layered, top with the remaining crush tomatoes or pasta sauce and a cup of cold water, unless you have enough liquid in the roaster, top with pinch salt and pepper.
Cover roaster with a lid or foil wrap, place in your pre-heated oven for about 1½ hours, check the cabbage rolls half way through to make sure no liquid is dripping out or gone dry, then when cooked remove from the oven.
Start plating cabbage rolls and top with sauce from your roaster , you can serve your cabbage rolls on its own or with perogies and garlic sausage.

Love your accent. It is refreshing. Great to see a Canadian style recipe for cabbage rolls.
Nice! Thank you for stopping by and I'm so glad you enjoyed our cabbage rolls recipe. They are pretty tasty. :) Enjoy Bonita
My dear 96 year old mom used to use a 1/4 pork & beef & bacon to 3/4 rice mixture or 1/2 meat to 1/2 rice, sometimes she would use buckwheat instead of rice and then she would lovingly roll the cabbage roll and finally patiently tuck in the sides. I used to watch how she would bake and cook without recipes, they were all locked up in her head, it is only now that she has passed that I realize how much her and previous generations knew, not like todays generation that would be lost without an I-Phone, i-Pad, or computer, I, we miss her so much. I will surprise my daughters and grandkids this Christmas and use your recipe. Thank you and have yourself the greatest of days.
Oh my what a wonderful age and I'm so glad you kept her recipe for her cabbage rolls. All our amazing elders didn't write down their recipes only kept them in their heads. This is why it's so very important to tap into our elders and get their recipes from days gone by. My mom and dad would make these cabbage rolls together and one would mix in the ingredients and the other would roll and tuck them. Thank you so much for stopping by and sharing your beautiful moms recipe and sharing your memories of her. Bless her and you.... I'm so glad our channel is of some help to you and please message anytime you are looking for a recipe. If your mom or grandma had a special recipe you would like to share with us, we would love that. :) Have a lovely day....:) Bonita

i was born in St Johns, haven't been back in 31 years. Im going to make these for my kids tonight thanks !
Made cabbage rolls yesterday. Another inspiration after watching your video, but I forgot to take a picture. They turned out really good except, I think I should have cooked the rice first as it wasn't a soft as I'd like it. I made my tomatoes sauce with fresh tomatoes and basil and onions and sportiness in some bacon bits. My mom always put straps of bacon on top of her cabbage rolls. Anyway, ate some for supper, gave some to my daughter in law and froze the rest for future. So good! Thanks, Bonita!
I just found this recipe on your channel after years of watching. Cabbage rolls are one of my favorite dishes. This version looks deluxe. Thanks Bonita:)
Haha that is so funny! I'm so glad you seen this one. My Dad was the cabbage roll maker in our family years ago. Plus he was also a organic vegetable farmer and had the best cabbages I ever eaten. But this is indeed a lovely recipe and I hope you get to make them sometime. :) Thank you for stopping by!! Bonita
One of my favorite meals! Appreciate you showing how you make yours ,very nice! Thanks Bonita
Your cabbage rolls look delicious. Thanks for the the recipe.
Thank you for posting this. My mom used to make these when I was little. We lived in Utah. When we moved to Missouri our friend showed us her German version that had sauerkraut and sour cream. That was also delicious.
You are very welcome and thank you for stopping by and I'm glad you enjoyed our version on cabbage rolls, I do love the German version as well. My friend is from their and when we are together she makes those for me. So good. :) Thank you once again and have a lovely day. Bonita

It is so interesting to me to see how different cultures do cabbage rools...it must be an international food
Thank you for your message and for stopping by, in our family we always had cabbage rolls as one of our regular meals. My dad was an organic farmer and had lot's of fresh green cabbage and he made cabbage rolls lots. It's not a traditional recipe for our province but one for our family. I hope you get to make them and please follow up with us letting us know what you think. :) Bonita
This is a laborious recipe of love. It is so yummy. You are such a hard worker. Cooking already can be laborious, but adding filming to it adds hours of work. We sure are lucky you enjoy sharing your yummy dishes.
Lovely recipe, cabbage roll recipes from Hungary, Poland, Russia and Greece abound, but these are the ones I'll make first,
Hi Tielo: Thank you for your message and for visiting my channel, I'm so glad you enjoy my recipe for cabbage rolls. These are my favourite and I love when I can get freshly grown cabbage by our local farmers. Thanks Bonita
thanks so much for your recipe, I've been away from home for a long time and every time I go looking for a recipe I remember from youth, I come across yours which is always close to what I remember... not sure mom used salt beef, but I can't wait to try this!
You are very welcome and thank you so much for your message. I'm glad we can help you keep close to your cultural recipes, you can leave the salt beef out if you like, thats what my dad would use to kick up the flavour and add salt beef in his cabbage rolls. Stop by any time and enjoy to the fullest....:) Bonita
I have just recently substituted to your channel but just now I was watching a video on how make cabbage rolls and your video automatically after that one and and instant smile came on my face when I heard them music and had to look up at the tv to make sure it was your channel love watching you thank you.
Bonita, an easier way to remove those leaves is to first remove most of the core BEFORE you place in the boiling water, and then when the boiled leaves are ready to remove use a large metal serving spoon (the rounded side) to slide up under the leaf from the cored end.

Hi there lovely Bonita.....I made these today & they're bubbling away now & my whole home smells beautiful. I couldn't find any salt beef here so I used a chunk of pancetta instead. Thank you so much for a marvellous recipe.

Yum! My husband and daughters made two big roasters of cabbage rolls on Christmas Eve. My husband’s version is Sarma (his family Serbian recipe). His variation is using V-8 juice for the sauce. Lots of garlic.
That sounds lovely I must try that next time, I have some green cabbage frozen for cabbage rolls over christmas, have a happy new year. enjoy Bonita

Hi Laura: Thank you so much for your message and for visiting our channel, these cabbage rolls are so delicious and yes you can make them with raw rice. The heat and steam in the roaster cooks the rice and bakes all the ingredients together. Enjoy Bonita

Looks fantastic... will definitely give it a roll...………………… I mean, give it a try.
Good for you and you are welcome
Wow it looks delicious and tasty tnx for sharing keep it up
Thank you so much and I'm glad you enjoyed our recipe and video, cabbage rolls this time of year are the best. Fresh green cabbage leaves and they smell so good when cooking. Enjoy Bonita
The ethnic variations are really amazing! I've just started making stuffed cabbage in my Instant Pot. For your future consideration: We Jews battle between the baked version (yours essentially), and the stewed version, but ours is always sweet and sour. Consider adding chopped raisins, ginger snap crumbs, brown sugar to your meat. Excess cabbage leaves, torn leaves get chopped, added to chopped onions, chopped tomatoes, garlic, and for a medium to large cabbage, about 3 tsp of sour salt/citric acid, and more brown sugar, which forms the soup for the rolls to cook in. Play around with it. It seems cabbage rolls all have a common denominator - chopped beef, onion, rice, and cabbage leaves. Thank you - great video. I cannot imagine a better lunch or dinner during a winter's Nor'easter in Newfoundland.
Thank you David for your message and for sharing your recipe with us and all our viewers. Your sounds lovely. Enjoy and Merry Christmas Bonita
Hi Bonita! Your version sounds yummy! I have made it with tomato sauce, tomato paste, lemon juice and alittle brown sugar. I also grate the onion and carrots and add rice like you. It's also pretty good. Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year to you and your famil!y! Hugs from Ohio.
That is wonderful and delicious, thank you for stopping by and have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. :) Bonita
That’s one massive cabbage 😲
Hi Sheena: Thank you for your message and for visiting my channel, and yes this cabbage is local and nice and big. Prefect for cabbage rolls. :) Bonita

Hi from west Canada love your accent❤️🧡💛💛💙 lol. Looks. Yummy
Hi and welcome, thank you for stopping by and I'm glad you enjoy my accent our recipe. :) Enjoy Bonita
I’m on my way lol!! They are seriously big rolls, but man I’m drooling. I love making cabbage rolls. Lazy cabbage rolls are really good , I use my sauerkraut for that and everything is the same. Mmm
Nice! I like the lazy cabbage rolls too, thank you for stopping by and enjoy the seasonal green cabbage for making these lovely cabbage rolls. :) Stop by anytime. Bonita
@@bonitaskitchen many years ago , I lived in the NWT for a while and got to know many Nfld-ers. The are fantastic cooks. There was one meal I learned to make back then but can’t remember what it was called. In a pot you cooked turnip, potatoes,cabbage, salt beef or pork (not sure which one) and a bag filled with orange split peas. When that was all cooked, wow that was so delicious! The other I really loved was salt cod and homemade bread. Yummmy! Lol
@@Harphoney Oh wow! We lived in the NWT for 28th years, this is the meal you are talking about Jiggs Dinner ua-cam.com/video/v-sPRO8FA0c/v-deo.html :) Bonita
What a beautiful head of cabbage!!! Won't find anything like that where I live. My mother made cabbage rolls and I LOVED them. She called them "guimpkis" (sp). One of my favorites that she made many, many years ago. Watching you plate the cabbage rolls, I kept thinking, "Where's Raymond??" LOL Thank you for this video!
Haha Right! Raymond wasn't very far from those cabbage rolls for sure. That is so lovely about your mom making these cabbage rolls as well, growing up here in Newfoundland the meals was pretty much the same in every house hold. But my dad would make these and my friends would be so mad that their parents didn't so dad would be feeding the neighbourhood :) Thanks for stopping by. :) Enjoy Bonita
Those look delicious definitely have to try these.
That big boiler you used reminds me of growing up my family is from NFLD and every Sunday was Jiggs dinner cooked in one about that size lol it would be on the stove boiling all day .
Thanks for sharing
Haha thats so right! We all owned a big boiler here in NL and Sunday morning you start boiling your salt beef and peas pudding. The boiler will be pretty much going all day. Thank you Dean for stopping by and this is indeed a wonderful recipe and very tasty. Enjoy :) Bonita
Amazing❤️🇨🇦 Love Newfandlanders💟💟
You are so sweet, thank you :) Bonita
@@bonitaskitchen You are the best dear lady👏
Since my mom passed away when I was 16,I became the “woman of the house” and you’re recipes/videos have helped me so much tremendously!
I always knew the meals but not the exact recipes so thank you so so much🙏🏼
Oh my, I'm glad to help and thats why we enjoy sharing our videos so everyone can enjoy them to and have access to recipes from our childhood days. Thank you Jessika for stopping by and visit anytime, our website is www.bonitaskitchen.com and every Sunday we post a NEW video. :) Enjoy Bonita
Need subtitles. Can't hear . Thanks so much
Yummy
We've always made these with sour kraut instead of the tomato and cooked on top of stove. I like the idea of putting them in the roaster better and the tomatoes look yummy. Don't forget the mashed potatoes.
I love cabbage rolls with sour kraut as well, my friend Jona would make them for me everytime we visited her. Thank you for stopping by and enjoy our recipe :) Bonita
I have never made cabbage rolls, but my mom did and I liked them. This a little different and I might try this, maybe my husband will try them. Can’t make cabbage rolls for one person.
Its indeed hard to cook for one person but its nice to have these meals to enjoy. So even if you make a half batch and freeze some in freezer containers to have anytime. Thank you for leaving a message and have a Happy Easter..:) Bonita
look good
Akeybra Sevier Thank you for your message and for visiting my channel, yes they are delicious and this time of the year with new cabbage available. Bonita

lisa bridgeman Thank you so much for your message and for visiting my channel, I'm glad you enjoyed my recipe 😊 Bonita
That cabbage is big..nice video
Donna Jacksin thank you for your message, yes I would agree that cabbage was the best for those cabbage rolls. I always watch for when the farmers start taking up their early cabbage and I'm in there buying them. Bonita
I put some sauerkraut In my cabbage rolls and the sauce, it gives them some zest.
Hi Stephen: That sounds delicious, I love adding sauerkraut in different meals and my corn beef sandwich. Thank you for your lovely message and visiting my channel. Enjoy Bonita
Me too. A polish mama showed me that trick. They also add paprika & marjarim
Very good video.

@@bonitaskitchen Hoping to plant my garden next week with lots of cabbage
@@hilohaianmolinere7168 That sounds lovely and enjoy to the fullest. :) Bonita
Love your accent. Love it! I also like the way you don't measure precisely. Cooking should be "fun" not "work." An "art" not a "science."
Cabbage rolls are just comfort food...
It is indeed Will! I love them and this time of the year we can get local grown cabbage and they are so tasty. Thank you for stopping by :) Bonita
@@bonitaskitchen I usually put layers of onions between the layers of cabbage rolls and use a deeper roaster. (I love onions)
@@billinboots Nice! That sounds lovely and I love onions as well. :) Thank you! Bonita
I love you Mam !!! God Bless!
Thank you :) Bonita
I sure will thinking of doing them tomorrow .ill let you know how it was

Hi and thank you for subscribing to my channel, I'm so glad you are enjoying my channel. I have a recipe and video here for Raisin Squares, you can surprise your husband after you make them. Enjoy Bonita ua-cam.com/video/al__o1FwQqA/v-deo.html
You should line the bottom of your roaster with cabbage leaves to prevent burning or sticking then add some tomato sauce followed by your cabbage rolls, finally cover your cabbage filled roaster with cabbage leaves and cover then bake.
Thank you for stopping by and sharing your tips!! This is a tasty batch of cabbage rolls and I've been making them for over 40 years. Lining the pan with cabbage leaves is indeed needed. No one like burnt cabbage rolls. I hope you get to make some and please follow up... We post a new video every Sunday if you wish to stop back. :) Bonita
Hi I also freeze my whole cabbage . Make sure you take it out the night before to defrost I always have a cabbage in the freezer so when I have the urge to make cabbage rolls half the work is done ☺☺☺☺
That works for sure and thank you for sharing your method for the process for your cabbage. I'm glad you stopped by and don't forget to check out more recipes at www.bonitaskitchen.com when you get time. Enjoy Bonita
Love your videos! Can the cooked cabbage rolls be frozen for later eating? Only one in my home that eats them and it's a lot of work for only 4-6 rolls. Please let me know. Thanks for sharing your skills.
Valerie Mercer thank you for your message and for visiting my channel, you can freeze the cooked cabbage rolls. Let the cabbage rolls cool and put maybe four in each freezer bag with some sauce and date the bag and freeze them. Enjoy
My late Ukrainian mother-in-law lined her baking dish with cabbage leaves and then covered her finished dish with more cabbage leaves. If you do that, you'll find that you use 2 heads of cabbage to make one baking dish full of cabbage rolls. She used the exact same baking dish that you have.
Nice! That is so wonderful it's a some world for sure. It's nice to know our cultures are almost the same. We love cabbage rolls and of course anything cabbage for me. Thank you so much for stopping by and have a lovely day. :) Bonita
For the salt beef, should it be soaked first or just used straight up?
l like using those first few large ones to line my pan with sauce underneath it ,, but l also core as much as l can so the leaves will just pull off easier after blanching them ,Also my think is l roll them all up and put them on a cookie sheet and par freeze them, and then put into large zip lock bags and all the extra leaves divide them up and bag them too, So when we cook them, l just take out what we need and then sauce them up and put some of those leaves on bottom and top, (can't beat a semi burnt cabbage leaf in my opinion) and cook them till done. never any waste, and they last us for most of the winter, Normally put in 6 for the us. more if they are a bit smaller,
That sounds wonderful Rick, thank you so much for stopping by and sharing your method with us. Cabbage rolls are so tasty and time of the year, having the frozen ones available to bake when you are ready to have them sounds amazing. Have a lovely day and stay safe... :) Bonita
I love the accent. I just found your channel about a week ago. Love it! Don’t know what salt beef is though....
In the USA, "salt beef" is called "corned beef".
Pleasssseeeee come to my house and make this for me. You make it look so simple and I could almost taste the goodness from here.....
You are the best, I love your message, thank you for stopping by and enjoy. :) Bonita
thank you
Hi Sam: You are very welcome, thank you for your message and for visiting my channel. :) Bonita
LOL May I volunteer to be your American taste tester? Looks so good!
Remind me when booking my next holiday to take Newfoundland off my list.
What? That is not a nice message, if you don't like cabbage rolls you can always order a feed of fish and brewis or beer battered cod. Have a wonderful day :) God Bless , Bonita

Hi and thank you for leaving a message and I'm sorry I just noticed your message, enjoy. :) Bonita
❤❤❤
Where did you get those cute frog bowls you used to put the ingredients in? PLease tell us.
Bonita, have u tried freezing the cabbage over night and thawing it in the morning? Interesting how in NL we use tomato sauce, but not tomato soup like elsewhere. I'm making them today with tomato soup for the first time. I'm gonna add some carrot today as seen in your video to try. Thanks from up the road from ya.
Hi and thank you for your message, I'm glad you enjoyed our recipe, I don't like frozen cabbage thats why I would make it this way and the way our elders would make it to keep the cabbage fresh and part boiled. My mom would say frozen cabbage cooked after got a strong odour, but thank you for sharing your method. We use tomato soup as well but I like the pasta sauce better, because of its extra flavours. Have a lovely day and thank you and enjoy.....:) Bonita
Some head of cabbage there maid! :)
Making this tonight. My version is a bit different, but very similar
Kenny Roberts Thank you so much for your message and I'm glad you enjoy this recipe, cabbage rolls is my favourite and anytime I can get access to fresh green leaves all I can think of is cabbage rolls. Thanks for stopping by, Enjoy Bonita
@@bonitaskitchen I make like a casserole with this too. You chop up the cabbage and mix it all together. When my hands are too sore, that's the way I do it. I have bad tendinitis and carpal tunnel syndrome in my hands
@@kenRoberts1984 Making a cabbage casserole sounds lovely, I use to have carpal tunnel and I had surgery on both my hands 10 years ago, everything is good now with them. I wish you well with yours, and all the best tonight with your cabbage rolls. Bonita
About the rice. Are you using instant rice like an Uncle Bens rice? Seems to me if using somethink like Jasmin or basmati seems it might better to cook that rice first. I really cannot see the regular rices fully cooking in either oven or boiling. How about freezing these things? Reminds me of my nan.
Paul in Quebev
Great. The outer dark green leaves are mostly cut off by the farmers. The customers don't want cabbage you have shown in the beginning. The customer prefers the "bowl". Sad. Much food get's wasted on the field. I'm sure, that the dark green color of the leaves has health beneficial's like chlorophyll, iron and others. Such a color is wanted in product's like Japanese Matcha Tea.
Merry Christmas Canada!
Thank you for your message Bjorn, green cabbage is the best part of a cabbage. I grow up in a farming house whole and my dad pretty much used all of the vegetables for everything, nothing was wasted. Our cabbage rolls were mostly made with green cabbage, you may need to boiled them a little longer or soak them over night but they are delicious. Merry Christmas to you and your family. Bonita

I was thinking they could just make coleslaw with those big leaves.
Hello Bonita . I love cabbage rolls but have never put salt beef in them. I live in Ontario and If you can tell me what salt beef is then I might be able to find it here. Actually I’ve never heard of it until I found you . Lol, that would be helpful . Thanks for sharing this recipe.
Hi Claudette: Thank you for your message and for stopping by, you can leave out the salt beef. Its not needed to complete the recipe only for us NL people who likes salt beef and having a taste in with the cabbage rolls just stands out. They are so tasty and you can just add a extra pinch of sea salt. Enjoy Bonita
I was surprised to see you use those big outer leaves. I would think they'd be too tough. My mother made wonderful cabbage rolls and I've never made any as good. She had one version with tomato but may have had another with mushroom soup. That was 60-70 years ago so I can't ask her. I don't know anything about salt beef as I live in western Washington State and I never heard of it until I started watching your videos. Love your accent by the way. It's very subtle but it sounds like you drop all of your H's. I find it fascinating.
Hi and thank you for stopping by, I'm glad you enjoyed our recipe for cabbage rolls. The outer cabbage leaves are the best, you do have to part boil them first and then after you put at the bottom of your roaster so they cook more. So so good, you don't have to put salt beef in them, here in Newfoundland and Labrador we love our salted beef so having it in different recipes is tasty. But not needed to make this recipe. My accent is part British and part Irish, our back ground is British. Canada was apart of Britain up to 1949 and joined Canada confederation. Thank you once again for stopping by and have a wonderful day. :) Bonita
I've read that you can freeze the cabbage to make the leaves workable. I haven't tried it yet.
I tried freezing my cabbage once. Came out very tough.
i always cooked the rice first but noticed you did not. does the rice cook well if you add it uncooked
The rice cooks well, with the liquid and sauce in the roaster helps steam and cooks the rice and beef really nice. This recipe is my favourite and years ago my dad would cook this on the stove top in a boiler with his cast iron wood burning stove, But I like the oven roasting because less work. Enjoy Bonita
Why not core the cabbage before boiling it? Some cooks use those huge outer leaves to line the pan. No criticism intended. Love your channel.
Hi Thank you for your message and for visiting my channel, I guess if you like to core your cabbage before blanching it that is ok. I like to blanch it first and cut the leaves off and then its ready to roll them. But lining your pan with a few of the green leaves helps them from sticking the to bottom of the pan. There are so many way to make them and each is equally delicious. Thanks Bonita
for me it is a must to core the cabbage before boiling/blanching , that way i don't have to try and do it while it's boiling hot
i make my cabbage rolls with some sauerkraut it gives them a tangy taste but it is not overwhelming . please try it . take care
Hi Bonita , we dont get those Cabbage full size ,with leaves out in the Prairie , last time i seen one was Ireland
I know right! When we visit friends and family there we are so surprised that the cabbage got all the leaves removed. But if you ask the produce manager have they got any green leaves in the back sorting room, they may. Because they remove them when they arrive and only sell the white head. I hope this helps because green leaf cabbage rolls are so delicious. :) Have a lovely day :) Bonita
What is chopped salt beef? Is it corned beef? Could you use Libby's Canned Corn Beef?
Hi Barry: Thank you for your message and for visiting my channel, salt beef is a salted beef or pickled in course salt that you can buy in Newfoundland or in same other province in Canada. We use this beef in Jiggs Dinner and many different meal, its not the same as corned beef. You don't need to add this ingredient in this recipe if you don't have access to it, you will enjoy these delicious cabbage rolls with the other ingredients the same. Thank you once again for your message. Bonita
what does blanch mean??
My mom used to freeze the head of cabbage. When thawed the cabbage would be soft. Therefore you did not need to boil the cabbage.
I do that sometimes with the green leaves but I still like to part boil in water first. Thank you for stopping by and Merry Christmas. Bonita
No egg and/or dill? I seem to remember that but am following your recipe because my memory of the full recipe is scattered.
