  • Prepare the cabbage properly: Remove any wilted or damaged outer leaves and cut the cabbage into thin slices or shreds for even cooking.
  • Use a variety of cheeses: Feel free to experiment with different types of cheeses to create unique flavor combinations. Cheddar, Gruyère, and Parmesan are all popular choices.
