Stuffed Cabbage Rolls (!!)

From: Woman's Day, June 1945 ("And I saw a new heaven and a new earth". Revelation 21:1).

Stuffed Cabbage Rolls (Meatless)

8 large cabbage leaves, 4 cups cubed stale bread, 1/3 cup fat, 2 tablespoons chopped parsley, 1/4 cup chopped celery and leaves, 3/4 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning, 1/2 to 1 cup chili powder, 1/2 cup chopped onion, 1 and 1/2 cups water, 2 bouillon cubes.
Separate cabbage leaves from the head by cutting out part of the core and removing each leaf carefully (running water will help separate the leaves). Cover leaves with boiling water, remove and drain after 2 minutes, saving 1 & 1/2 cups of the water. To make stuffing, cook bread cubes in fat in deep skillet until lightly browned, add parsley, celery, seasonings and onion (reserve a little onion for the sauce), cook 5 minutes. Cut out the thickest part of cabbage ribs and save to add to sauce. Spread stuffing on leaves, turn in edges, roll, fasten,with toothpicks. Brown remaining onion in skillet in which stuffing was prepared: add bouillon cubes, chopped ribs of cabbage leaves and 1 & 1/2 cups water from cabbage. Add stuffed leaves, cover and simmer 20 minutes.

(Don't forget to remove toothpicks when serving!)
