Vegetable stew with cabbage is a true embodiment of simplicity and sophistication in French cuisine. Born in the kitchens of rural homes, it has become a symbol of homely comfort and gastronomic harmony. At its core is a delicate combination of cabbage, zucchini, carrots, and tomatoes slowly simmered in fragrant oil. Each ingredient reveals its flavor, creating a soft texture and rich vegetable aroma. This dish perfectly complements a light dinner or becomes part of lunch, highlighting the naturalness and freshness of seasonal products. The stew can be served as a standalone dish or alongside crispy baguette.
