For an even richer flavor, try using smoked bacon. Feel free to add other vegetables to the dish, such as onions or garlic, along with the cabbage. A sprinkle of fresh parsley or dill adds a bright, herbaceous note to the finished dish. Use wide egg noodles for a more substantial bite. Don't overcook the cabbage; it should be tender but still have some texture.

Follow The Directions
01
StepIn a large, deep skillet, combine water and butter. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. (2 minutes)
02
StepAdd the chopped bacon and return to a boil, allowing the bacon to render its fat and begin to crisp. (3 minutes)
03
StepStir in the cored and chopped cabbage. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the cabbage is fork-tender and most of the liquid has evaporated. Be sure to stir occasionally to prevent burning. (20 minutes)
04
StepOnce the cabbage is cooked, drain any remaining liquid from the skillet. (2 minutes)
05
StepMeanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil. (7 minutes)
06
StepAdd the egg noodles and cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender but still slightly firm to the bite (al dente). (5 minutes)
07
StepDrain the noodles well, reserving about 1/2 cup of the pasta water. (2 minutes)
08
StepReturn the bacon and cabbage mixture to the skillet. Add the drained egg noodles. Toss gently to combine, adding a splash of reserved pasta water if needed to moisten. (3 minutes)
09
StepSeason to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Serve immediately.
