My friend down the hall, Joe Naylor, just left this recipe on my desk and I thought I would share it with you. I have not made this recipe, nor will I, since I would rather save my Sterno for drinking. It's that old wood alcohol that puts the twinkle in my eyes. Anyway, ... FLAMING CABBAGE HEAD WEENIES WITH PU PU SAUCE PU PU SAUCE 1/2 cup sour cream 2 Tbl yellow mustard I Tbl. brown sugar 1/2 Tbl Worchestershire sauce 1 Tbl wine vinegar 1 Tbl chili sauce 1 small onion, minced fine 1 tsp lemon juice chili powder and salt to taste Combine all ingredients in a sauce pan. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. remove from heat; let stand at least one hour before using. FLAMING CABBAGE HEAD WEENIES 1 large head cabbage, red or green 25 to 30 cocktail weenies 1 can of Sterno Rinse cabbage and trim base so that it stands evenly. Form decorative petals by curling a few outer leaves down from top. Cut a space in top center of head deep enough to hold Sterno inside, with rim of can even with cabbage. Light Sterno. Stick cocktail franks into flaming cabbage on toothpicks or, if you are worried about burned fingertips, provide long forks. Set warm pu pu sauce nearby for dipping. Serves four to six. -- _ Peter Benson | ITT Defense Communications Division (619)578-3080 | 10060 Carroll Canyon Road decvax!ittvax!dcdwest!benson | San Diego, CA 92131 ucbvax!sdcsvax!dcdwest!benson |
