I spent my childhood going to Polish Festivals in the "Coal Region" of PA. The food was legendary, & above all else, I looked forward to halupki -- cabbage rolls. Oh, what a treat! When I started cooking on my own, I took making halupki up with a great passion. Mine never were as good as the little old Polish ladies at the festivals. Until I learned their secrets & how to make them the REAL way. I now share with you. These are the best! Enjoy.\nI always make mine in my crockpots, but you can bake them in the oven or cook them in a huge stockpot on the stove.
