Add the onions, carrots, parsnips, rutabaga, potatoes, parsley, bay leaves and peppercorns and 3 cups of water. Cover and cook on high for 4 hours.
Step 3

Add cabbage to the slow cooker and cook on high for 1 hour more.

Mustard Sauce

Step 1

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the sour cream, mustard and sugar. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
