Ingredients

Instructions

  • Place a vegetable steamer or metal colander in a large pot. Fill with enough water to come just below the steamer/colander.

  • Bring the water in the pot to a boil. Add the cabbage, cover (crack cover to allow some steam to escape),and steam for 4 to 8 minutes until caboodles are tender but not completely wilted.
  • Remove cabbage from steamer and enjoy in any way that you would serve noodles.
