Prepare the stuffed cabbage. Boil water in a pot large enough to fit the cabbage head. Make deep slits around the core of the cabbage head and blanch in boiling water for about 3 minutes or until pliable. Remove cabbage head from the pot and reserve the hot water. Carefully peel off 4 softened leaves under cold water and set aside (save extra cabbage for other recipes).
