I'm not a big fan of cabbage, but this recipe changed my mind. The cabbage was cooked perfectly and the sauce was delicious. I will definitely be making this again.

This recipe was easy to follow and the cabbage turned out great. I used a combination of red and green cabbage and it looked beautiful on the plate. The sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste, so I added a little bit of Dijon mustard to balance it ou

I've made this recipe several times now and it's always a hit. The cabbage is always tender and the sauce is flavorful. I like to add a little bit of extra vinegar to the sauce to give it a bit of a kick.
