esther wants me to tell you...

that in Newfoundland cabbage is associated with the grandmothers who are also affectionately refered to as Nans

the vegetable is often served boiled along with other vegetables such as potato, turnip, carrot, corn and peas in a meal served primarily on Sundays - known localy as Jiggs Dinner aka Sunday Dinner aka Cooked Dinner. This meal often involves a roast and or turkey/chicken - as well as salted beef (which people buy in buckets)

we are a unique people.

traditionally this is served with a side dish made of breadcrumbs mout scio savour (a spice) and often onion, butter/oil and sometimes raisins.

there is this other nonsense called split pea pudding - but i don't want to get into it.
