Growing up and occasionally now, we/I make "piggies in the blanket" which
is what the stuffed cabbage rolls were called in the location I grew up in.
Many a lunch sandwich was made with them to take to school. Just cut
up or flattened with the cabbage included. Delicious on home made bread.
Perhaps this is the same thing and I think the polish/checkoslovakian name
for them might be similar to what you heard as glubsi.
