"As I ate the oysters with their strong taste of the sea and their faint metallic taste that the cold white wine washed away, leaving only the sea taste and the succulent texture, and as I drank their cold liquid from each shell and washed it down with the crisp taste of the wine, I lost the empty feeling and began to be happy, and to make plans."--Ernest Hemingway

Combine ground beef, ground pork, green onions, dill, rice, grated onion, olive oil, egg, salt and pepper. Hand Mix and set aside.

Separate leaves from cabbage. In sauce pan cook a few leaves at a time in boiling water, about 3 minutes until tender. Drain on paper towels.

Spoon 1 T of meat mixture into each cabbage leaf and fold sides of leaf to center, then bottom, and roll up.

Line bottom and sides of an 8 qt sauce pot with any leftover leaves. Arrange rolls in layers in sauce pot. Pour water and salt over the rolls. Place a small glass plate, face down, on top of the layered cabbage rolls - this will hold cabbage rolls in place while cooking. Bring to boil.
