{ Roasted Parmesan Cabbage Wedges }

with Lemon Tahini Dressing

Have you ever tried roasting your cabbage before? Such a comforting and homey feel. Cabbage takes on a pleasing, buttery flavour and melt-in-your mouth texture when cooked. Pair that with a little crunch and a bit of creamy as this recipe does, and you’ve got a wonderful side to a summer or fall meal.

We’ve grown many varieties of cabbage in our garden over the years, each with different defining properties (some more dense, some leafy, some sweeter, some savoury– coming in different colours, textures, shapes, sizes)– nonetheless, they all taste equally wonderful when done up right.

Cooked cabbage adds warmth and comfort to a meal. Considered a cheap vegetable, it has impressive health benefits, and this recipe adds one more way to indulge yourself with it.
