Green and Purple Cabbage Ingredients

Just a handful of ingredients (most of which I'd be willing to bet you have in your kitchen already) come together to make this seriously tasty cabbage dish. Here's what you'll need:

• Green Cabbage – for this recipe, you'll need 1 medium green cabbage and…
• Purple Cabbage – …1 medium head of purple cabbage.
• Butter – to jazz up the cabbage, you'll need a 1/3 cup of melted grass-fed butter,…
• Dried Herbs + Seasonings – …1 tablespoon of dried thyme, 1 tablespoon of dried rosemary, 1 tablespoon of dried sage, and salt + pepper to taste.

How to Cook Green and Purple Cabbage

Y'all, this recipe is perfect for serving to a group, and it could not be easier to make! Here's how you'll do it:

1. Preheat – first, preheat your oven to 400°F.
2. Peel, Cut, and Season the Cabbage – peel the outer layers of the cabbage away and cut into 8 wedges each. Then, lay the cabbage into a baking dish and cover with the melted butter, thyme, rosemary, sage, salt, and pepper.
3. Bake – stick the buttery, seasoned cabbage in the oven to bake at 400°F for 45-60 minutes.
4. Serve + Enjoy!

What is the use of purple cabbage?

Purple cabbage is used just as green cabbage is! Using both here makes this dish really appealing to the eye (not just the taste buds!).

Can you cook purple cabbage the same as green cabbage?

You can! You'll roast ALL of the wedges (both green and purple) for the same amount of time here.

What does purple cabbage taste like?

Purple and green cabbage are super similar, but purple cabbage does tend to be just a tinge sweeter (in flavor) and softer (in texture) than green cabbage.

Many thanks to Bill and Hayley Staley and the team at Victory Belt Publishing for graciously providing a copy of the book for this review.
