Cabbage since ancient times is famous not only for its excellent culinary properties, but also for powerful medicinal possibilities, which is due to the rich composition of the plant.
On the origin of the name "bigos" there are many versions. Some say that this "double taste" (bi-flavor) in Latin - and not cabbage and meat, you can immediately think, namely double cabbage: sour and fresh. Others derive the name from the Italian "bigutta" (bowler). Still others refer to the German verbs "begießen" (pour, smoke) and "beigießen" (top up).
