Equipment
- 1 Cutting Board
- 1 Knife
- 1 Frying Pan/Skillet
- Measuring cups and spoons
- 1 Serving Platter
Ingredients
- 1 unit cabbage medium head
- � tsp salt plus extra to taste
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter melted
- freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Rinse the cabbage and cut it into six wedges.
- Add about 1/2 inch of lightly salted water to a large skillet or Dutch oven, cover, and bring to a boil. Add cabbage wedges and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Simmer, covered, for 8 to 10 minutes.
- Turn cabbage carefully, and simmer for an additional 8 minutes.
- Pour off the water and return the pan to low heat until the moisture has evaporated.
- Add the melted butter and mix to coat the boiled cabbage thoroughly.
- Sprinkle the cabbage with salt and pepper, seasoning to taste.
Notes
- To test whether the cabbage is done, insert a small paring knife in the densest part of the cabbage near the core. If the knife slides through smoothly, the cabbage is tender and ready to be served.
- You can use chicken or vegetable broth in place of water.
- You can also replace salt with a seasoned blend. If the seasoning is salt-free, add salt to taste.
- Drizzle the cabbage with hot sauce to get a tastier bite.
