# Expert Hacks:

01 -
  • The cabbage gets these irresistible crispy edges while staying tender in the middle
  • It comes together in under 10 minutes of active prep time
  • The spice blend works with practically any main dish you pair it with
02 -
  • Dont overcrowd the baking sheet or the cabbage will steam instead of roast
  • The edges should get almost charred, that is where the most flavor lives
03 -
