REVIEWS:

"I'm a bachelor so, this recipe was real simple to cook. thanks for your help."

"I knew that cabbage was boiled but since I had never had it outside a resteraunt I had no idea how NOT to over cook them. I was shocked to find out that butter salt and pepper was all it took to be DELICIOUS."

"We are watching what we eat and cabbage is a great diet food. I only shook a few shakes of salt into the water and skipped the butter entirely. I served it with a salt and pepper shaker so we could add what we wanted to taste. Quick and easy and will remember this one for sure!"

This recipe is simple and foolproof. Very tasty!"

"The recipe is a good recipe. However it lacks vital details on how much water to use. This is a vital detail because of salt and butter content. a gallon of water that has a 1/2 teaspoon of salt will make the cabbage taste significantly different that a half teaspoon of salt in 2 quarts. This is also the case with butter. Again, the recipe is good but needs instructions on pot size and (in general) how much water."

"Perfect for what I needed it for. We make a lot of jerk and spicy foods. Sometimes a 'calmer' side dish is exactly what it needs. This was what I was looking for regarding length of cooking time, etc."
