# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • It turns the most overlooked vegetable into something you will actually crave
  • The edges get impossibly crispy while the center stays tender and sweet
02 -
  • The stem end holds everything together so do not be tempted to remove it before slicing
  • Flipping halfway through is nonnegotiable for even caramelization on both sides
03 -
  • Use a very sharp knife to get clean cuts that do not tear the leaves
  • Do not overcrowd the pan or the cabbage will steam instead of roast
