When the first frost moves over the land on the coast, the kale season begins, or, as the people of Bremen or Oldenburg say, the brown cabbage season. Now the curly leaves of this cabbage, which is not appreciated everywhere, are crunched, which gives it a slightly sweet taste. Just right for the Frisians, who love sweetness. Huge kale dinners then take place, at which people eat according to the motto “As long as de Buuk(Bauch) in de West still fits”. Beer and Korn must not be missing at such a meal in any case.
Make the tongue sausage or pork cheek in 3/4 l water for 45 minutes. Add the cleaned kale to the clear soup and make everything together for another 1 1/2 hours. Remove the cabbage from the saucepan and either chop it or cut it into small pieces. at the beginning use the melting flakes to thicken the clear soup, then add the cabbage and make it for 10 min. Add sugar and salt to taste. Remove the meat from the pot and cut into slices. Serve with sweet round fried potatoes.
