GINGER: If mascarpone is unavailable, use a well-blended combination of ⅔ cream cheese and ⅓ ricotta cheese. Double the amount of wasabi, to taste. Combine and let the mixture marry for at least an hour. CABBAGE. If Vidalias are not in season, use a sweet yellow onion. Peel, split, slice the onions. Finely dice the cabbage. Heat a combination of butter and oil and add the onions and cabbage. Slowly saute for about 20 minutes, until the onions start to be translucent.

Add salt and sugar. Continue to cook slowly, stirring occassionally until the onions have turned a caramel brown. This should take about an hour. Remove from heat and add the vinegar. PUMPKIN.
