The sowing basically never stops at Homeacres, where there are always spaces available to be filled, and seeds to fill them: savoy cabbage seedlings ready to follow even before the onions are harvested, or leeks after the potatoes, or a row of carrots tucked between those of leaf lettuce.

There is a leaf of savoy cabbage loosely draped around starchy, savory rice bound with melted scamorza; lightly caramelized and then moistened with truffle vinaigrette, it may be the first stuffed cabbage I could honestly describe as graceful.

Every week, I find wondrous garden-picked savoy cabbage and foraged purslane in my crisper, fresh from my mom's tote.

Savoy cabbage is similar in shape to green cabbage, with slightly looser, less dense leaves.

Eat dessert first, because this is a holiday, and then dig into curried pumpkin soup and goulash made with Carolina gold rice, ground beef and savoy cabbage.
