½ head of white cabbage

2-3 tsp paprika powder
1 tsp cumin

Oil
Recipe:
Cut the cabbage into small strips and cook in salted water till mostly soft.
Cook the noodles till al dente. Cut the salami and the onion into cubes.
In a big pot, sear the onion, salami and ham and season it with the salt, pepper, cumin and paprika.
Add the cabbage and let it simmer on low heat for about 10 minutes - don't forget to stir!
Add the noodles and mix well, simmer for another 3-10 minutes till everything is properly cooked through/soft enough for you.
The food tastes best when it has had a few hours to steep, I recommend making it the say before you want to eat it (how I like it best) or at least 5 hours before consumption. You can reheat it in the pot and It'll taste even better.

Space Lettuce in the White House Kitchen Garden
While most people plant gardens on Earth, we’re working to cultivate one in space!
On April 5, the First Lady welcomed students from across the country as well as NASA Deputy Administrator Dava Newman and NASA astronaut Cady Coleman to the White House Kitchen Garden.
While there, they planted various produce, including the same variety of lettuce that will be sent to the International Space Station on the April 8 SpaceX cargo launch.
These seeds were prepared and packaged for both the First Lady’s garden, as well as the batch headed up to space station. “Outredgeous” Red Romaine Lettuce and “Tokyo bekana” Chinese Cabbage will soon be growing in both gardens!
Why do we grow plants in space?
Our Veggie plant growth system on the space station provides lighting and nutrient supply for a space garden. It supports a variety of plant species that can be cultivated for educational outreach, fresh food and even recreation for crew members on long-duration missions.
When crews travel farther into space, they will need a self-sustaining life support system, and that means growing their own food.
How do we grow plants in space? Here’s a resource for “Space Gardening 101”.
Want to see the space station seeds launch? You can watch Friday’s SpaceX cargo launch live online starting at 3:30 p.m. EDT, with launch scheduled for 4:43 p.m.
