  2. In deep ware let’s boil water, throw cabbage pieces, lower the fire to medium and boil for no more than 3 minutes so that it won’t lose vitamins. Cabbage has to remain firm. It will reach full readiness in marinade. Cast away the blanched pieces on a colander to cool and save from excess liquid.
