    braised just enough to wilt it and then hot olive oil, garlic and balsamic... YUM!

    I also make kimchi with it (fermented spicy cabbage) but that takes a while and you get a LOT lol.

    super simple, slice cabbage into a baking pan, pour in a little chicken broth or water, sprinkle with spices you like, my favorite is the yellow mrs dash, put a couple of bacon slices on top, cover with foil and bake till tender. I am thinking around 1/2 an hour but you may want to test and make sure it is the way you like it.

    This is absolutely delicious: http://www.canyoustayfordinner.com/2012/11/12/lightened-up-pad-thai-for-two/

    Lightened Up Pad Thai for Two

    1 tablespoon sesame oil
    6 cups green cabbage, finely shredded
    1 ½ cups mushrooms, chopped (any kind)
    2 cloves garlic, minced
    3 tablespoons soy sauce
    2 teaspoons sugar
    2 large eggs
    1 ounce salted dry roasted peanuts, chopped
    2 tablespoons fresh cilantro or Thai basil, chopped

    Set a large frying pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add the oil and swirl to coat. Add the cabbage and cook, stirring frequently, for 7-10 minutes, or until tender-crisp.
    Add mushrooms and cook for about 3 minutes, until softened.
    Add garlic, soy sauce, and sugar and stir well to combine.
    Add eggs and stir constantly, scrambling them into the hot cabbage mixture.
    Serve immediately, topped with the peanuts and cilantro or Thai basil.

    Now are you talking about Nappa cabbage or do you make your kimchi with regular? If regular, do you make it the same way?

    Cut a head into wedges and slather a bit of butter or olive oil, S&P, onion salt, spice blend, whatever spices you want on each wedge on aluminum foil, wrap it up and bake or grill it. I turn it over after 10 or 15 minutes and test for doneness by stabbing it with a skewer to make sure it's soft enough. The outter pieces get nicely browned and are the best.

    Colcannon. My fave. I make them into a round shape and pan fry them to get the outside crispy.

    I've been wondering about this. My favorite way of cooking brussels sprouts is roasted, and what is cabbage but a huge brussels sprout? (more or less...) If it's like roasted brussels sprouts, garlic and paprika are tasty spices to add.
