How many minutes to boil cabbage?
The time it takes to boil cabbage depends on the size and thickness of the cabbage, and how tender you want it to be.
Here's a general guide:
* Small cabbage wedges (about 1 inch thick): 8-10 minutes
* Larger cabbage wedges (about 2 inches thick): 15-20 minutes
* Shredded cabbage: 5-7 minutes
Here are some tips for boiling cabbage:
* Use a large pot: Make sure there's enough room for the cabbage to cook evenly.
* Add salt to the water: This helps to season the cabbage and draw out moisture.
* Don't overcook: Overcooked cabbage will be mushy. Test for doneness by piercing the cabbage with a fork. It should be tender but still hold its shape.
For a sweeter flavor: Add a tablespoon of sugar to the boiling water.
Enjoy!
