How do I boil cabbage?

Question

I am making corned beef in the crock pot and want some cabbage to go with it.

Answer 1

Use a knife to thinly slice the cabbage.Put into a pot and cover with water. Place the lid on the pot.Bring to a boil and cook till tender.This won't take long and you can test for doneness with a fork.

Serve with salt and pepper and butter.I like to add a dash of vinegar to mine.

1/2 head of cabbage-chopped into 2 in squares

1Tb fresh ginger-1 inpiece;cut into 1/8 in slickes; skin on or off

1/2 tsp salt

Answer 4

Put it in the crockpot with the corned beff. Cut it in quarters, put it in when your beef is about an hour or so from done. The cabbage will pick up the flavor of your corned beef and be quite lovely. Put some carrots and onions in as well. Put the carrots in earlier than the onions and cabbage

Answer 5

Bring salted water to the boil.

Cut the cabbage in to manageable/ eatable  sized pieces.

Boil in the water for 15 to 20 minutes.

Drain in to a colander.

Finally, press between two plates to remove the remaining excess moisture.

NB.

It is the remaining excess moisture, if left  in the cabbage, which can make it very unappealing, because cabbage can go into a soggy green mess.

NNB

Cabbage once removed from the boiling water, of cooking, cools down very quickly.To keep it warm, place in a dry pan, which is then placed in a steaming bain-marie.

hope that helps. !!!!
