This one barely counts as a recipe. But it’s easy to overcook cabbage and make it wilted and mushy. So here’s a fast and easy way to do it.
Sauteed Cabbage
Equipment
- 1 cutting board
- 1 kitchen knife
- 1 frying pan
- 1 steel spatula
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp bacon grease
- 2 cup cabbage
Instructions
- Slice the cabbage into the desired size – suggested as strips around 1/2" wide by 2" long.
- Heat the frying pan on High (10) until it starts to smoke.
- Add the bacon grease to the pan and let it sizzle.
- Add the cabbage into the sizzling grease, break it up and spread it evenly through the pan.
- Turn the heat down to Med-High (8).
- Let the cabbage sit long enough to brown. Stir with spatula every minute or two.
- Cabbage is ready when the edges are browned but the centers are still crunchy. Around 5-6 minutes, but not more than 10.
- If you're salting this, salt it after cooking. Salting before or during cooking will make it release water and wilt.
