An exciting, spectacular fen- ture at a cocktail party in Mr. and Mrs. Phil Hindley’s charming home, Oakland, California.

Clean a large cabbage. Curl outer leaves back from top. Cut out center; hollow it out about 6 deep. Place a sterno lamp in the cavity (lamp hidden, but flame should come almost to top of cabbage). Place cabbage on serving plate. Surround with a frill of parsley. Thrust wooden picks through cocktail sausages, and stick into the cabbage. Stick an olive onto end of each (to protect fingers from flame). Guests broil their own sausages.
