Darling, I seem to have this cabbage....

So, we have two heads of cabbage at home, and Sarah is urging me to palm one of them off on St. Luke's.
Last night I made braised cabbage in the style of buttered worts, and that was pretty good; should I go with that, or this recipe:

Caboches In Potage. IIII. Take Caboches and quarter hem and seeth hem in gode broth with Oynouns y mynced and the whyte of Lekes y slyt and corue smale and do þer to safroun an salt and force it with powdour douce.-- Forme of Cury

I use the ratio on the barley package, which, if memory serves me right, it two parts water to one part barley.

I also usually cook it in vegetable broth, and add a little oil.
