The recipe for this ukrainian stuffed cabbage or holubets (holubtsi is plural) is from kramarczuk's family classics by orest & katie kramarczuk (beavers pond press, 2013). The book pays tribute to wasyl and anna kramarczuk who emigrated from ukraine and who started the kramarczuk deli, sausage company, bakery and restaurant in minneapolis in 1954 where it still stands today. Their son (orest) and granddaughter (katie) have compiled iconic, simple-to-prepare recipes from the business like this one. The authors say, "Holubets [is] a staple in ukrainian cuisine. Don't let the cabbage intimidate--they are always a crowd pleaser. The choice of a buckwheat filling makes them a wonderful and vegetarian option. "The cabbage rolls can be served with an optional tomato cream sauce (recipe below) as it is at the restaurant.
