Cabbagetown
Cabbagetown: The Classic Novel of the Depression in Canada | Hugh Garner
1 post | 2 to read
Toronto's Cabbagetown in the Depression...North America's largest Anglo-Saxon slum. Ken Tilling leaves school to face the bleak prospects of the dirty thirties-where do you go, what do you do, how do you make a life for yourself when all the world offers in unemployment, poverty and uncertainty? "As a social document, Cabbagetown is as important and revealing as either The Tin Flute or The Grapes of Wrath. Stern realism has also projected upon the pages of a whole gallery of types, lifelike and convincing. He is well fitted to hold the mirror up to human nature." Globe and Mail. Cabbagetown was first published in an abbreviated paperback edition in 1950 and was published in its entirety in 1968. This, the first quality paperback edition, contains the full unexpurgated text of Cabbagetown.

#FoodandLit #Canada I made Cabbage Rolls it is unclear as to who invented this lovely dish, but we do have a lot of Ukrainian immigrants that came to Canada in the early 1900 s. I learned how to make it from a French Canadian lady. The recipe is very easy.
1. Cook beef with onions and add beef broth pouch until cooked. Cook rice separately. Mix the two together and add soya sauce. Don't be cheap but taste. ⬇️

LiseWorks Add cayenne peper to spice it up. Put the mix in leaves of cabbage and roll to put in casserole dish. Take a can of Campbells tomato soup. Mix with full can of water and mix. Sladder all over cabbage rolls and put cover on it and bake in over until cabbage is cooked. Serve with sour cream 😋 1w

Texreader Positive I‘d love this (other than the cayenne) 1w
LiseWorks @Texreader the cayenne is a personal choice. It is something I decided one day to add and now my family likes it lol 1w
Dilara I had something pretty similar in Hungary 😁 https://budapestcookingclass.com/hungarian-stuffed-cabbage-rolls-recipe-toltott-...
I guess every country where cabbage grows would have its own take on the dish 😁

LiseWorks @Dilara, this is the recipe my mom used to do with the rice uncooked with tomato sauce. But when I made mine for my dad, he loved mine more than my mom's. The campbell soup has spices in it that give it flavor, and yes, everyone has their own take on how to make them. I had some in Saskatchewan, and theirs had sausage in it. 1w
