Ingredients

  • 1 medium green cabbage (or savoy or napa cabbage), cut into 6–8 thick wedges
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 tablespoons white or yellow miso paste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (optional)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar or lemon juice
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Sesame seeds, chopped scallions, or chili flakes for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Remove damaged outer cabbage leaves and cut the cabbage into 6–8 thick wedges, keeping the core intact.
  3. In a bowl, mix softened butter with miso paste until smooth. Add minced garlic if using.
  4. Spread the miso butter generously over the cut sides of each cabbage wedge.
  5. Place wedges cut-side down on the baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil if desired, and season with black pepper.
  6. Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until edges are browned and centers are tender.
  7. Finish with a splash of rice vinegar or lemon juice. Garnish with sesame seeds, scallions, or chili flakes if using.

Notes

  • Add honey or maple syrup to the miso butter for a sweet-savory twist.
  • Red cabbage can be used but has a firmer texture.
  • For deeper umami, add a splash of soy sauce or tamari.
  • For spice, use chili flakes or chili crisp before serving.
  • Top with roasted peanuts or crispy onions for extra texture.
