When you don't know what to cook for dinner? I advise you to make a very simple dish - stewed cabbage with a taste of smoked meat, which will please your nearest and dearest!
Bigus with sauerkraut and fresh cabbage is a dish of traditional Polish cuisine, although they say that it owes its appearance to Lithuanian chefs. Initially, the process of cooking bigus was quite difficult and took several days.
Modern housewives cannot afford to take up such an amount of time, and therefore the classic recipe for cooking a dish takes about an hour and a half if we initially cook fresh meat.
Smoked meats give bigus a special taste, and you can enhance it with dry white wine. If you do not want to use alcohol, replace its volume with plain water. Delicious, satisfying and very simple!
Bigus is good to cook after the holidays, when small pieces of various smoked meats remain from the abundant table — and the meat will go into business, and additional costs will not be required.
But all these culinary studies are possible and simple when you have sauerkraut in the refrigerator, without it bigos will not be bigus.
