Getting Started

Prevent Soggy Cabbage: For crispy edges, roast cabbage at 200°C (400°F) for 20-25 minutes. Pat slices or wedges dry before oiling and seasoning. Overcrowding the pan releases steam, making it soft.
Boost Flavor & Fat: Cabbage benefits from ample fat. Toss with olive oil, avocado oil, or melted butter before baking. Add high-fat keto ingredients like bacon, cheese, or heavy cream to enhance richness and satiety.
Caramelization is Key: High heat and direct contact with the baking sheet encourage caramelization, developing a sweeter, deeper flavor. Flip halfway through cooking for even browning.
Season Generously: Cabbage can be bland; don't shy away from bold seasonings. Garlic, onion powder, smoked paprika, dill, caraway seeds, and a good amount of salt and pepper work well.
