Ingredients

Scale

Gather these ingredients to make your Miso Butter Roasted Cabbage Wedges:

  • 1 medium head of green cabbage
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 tablespoons white miso paste
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 clove garlic, minced (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon grated ginger (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Sesame seeds, for garnish (optional)
  • Green onions, sliced, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Prepare the Cabbage:

  1. Cut into Wedges: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Remove any loose outer leaves from the cabbage. Cut the cabbage in half through the core. Place each half cut-side down and cut into 4 wedges, keeping the core intact so the wedges stay together.

Prepare the Miso Butter:

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, miso paste, soy sauce, minced garlic (if using), and grated ginger (if using). Mix well until everything is evenly combined.

Coat and Roast the Cabbage:

  1. Brush with Olive Oil: Lightly brush each cabbage wedge with olive oil, ensuring all sides are coated. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

  2. Spread with Miso Butter: Generously spread the miso butter mixture over all sides of the cabbage wedges, making sure to get it in between the leaves.

  3. Roast: Place the cabbage wedges on the prepared baking sheet, cut-side up. Roast for 25-30 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender and the edges are caramelized and crispy.

Garnish and Serve:

  1. Garnish: Remove the cabbage wedges from the oven and garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions, if desired.

  2. Serve: Serve the Miso Butter Roasted Cabbage Wedges immediately while they are still warm and crispy.
