Cabbage Rolls with Dill

Cabbage rolls. ”This is delicious!" declared Emma after we made the filling for holubtsi (cabbage rolls). I think she was eating as much as she was putting into the cabbage leaves. I make the filling the way my Great Aunt Anna taught me: rice, ground beef, onions, bacon, bacon fat...and the secret ingredient.

The secret ingredient? Dill. Don't be stingy with the dill.

GARDEN TIP: When dill is plentiful in the garden, I chop and freeze it.

(If you allow dill to self-seed in the garden, you'll probably have a nice crop for freezing in late summer.)
