Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 1 pound savoy cabbage, stalk removed

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, or more as needed

  • 2 shallots, finely chopped

  • 1 teaspoon confectioners' sugar, or to taste

  • 1 tablespoon creamed horseradish

  • ½ cup heavy whipping cream

  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

  • cayenne pepper to taste

  • freshly ground nutmeg to taste

  • 2 ripe pears - peeled, cored, and cubed

Directions

  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add cabbage and briefly blanch, about 3 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process. Shred leaves finely.

  2. Melt butter in a pot over medium-low heat and cook shallots until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Dust with confectioners sugar. Add blanched cabbage and cook, stirring occasionally, over medium heat, for about 3 minutes. Stir in horseradish and cream and bring to a simmer. Season with salt, pepper, cayenne, and nutmeg. Add pears and cook until heated through, about 3 minutes. Serve immediately.
