We tried this tonight, I have never eaten cabbage before in my life, my mom would always try to get me to eat it, nope I wouldn't do it. My fiance found this recipe and made it and I loved it. We did however substitute kosher salt with sea salt. - 12/30/14

I'm glad you like it! I usually can't stand cabbage. There are very few cabbage recipes that I like, but I love this one. I use sea salt, too. Not sure why it says kosher salt. I'll change it.
