I am not a fan of boiled cabbage. I apologize if I offend any of the boiled cabbage lovers. I get it that boiling the cabbage in the water with the corned beef improves its taste – I have to say though it doesn’t improve its texture. I like cabbage best, raw and crunchy. No soft or soggy cabbage on my plate, please. Is al dente a method of cooking cabbage? I am guessing it isn’t, but it should be. Please pass the al dente cabbage.
There are only three ingredients in sauteed cabbage and onions. Chopped cabbage, sliced onions, and butter. A little optional salt and pepper to taste, and that’s it.

      Hello Meta: I’m glad you found this recipe. I make this cabbage on St. Patrick’s day instead of boiled cabbage. I also have a vegan burger on the website for which I use this cabbage recipe. (except the butter) I use vegan butter.
