- Add about 3 tbsp of Cajun seasoning and 3 tbsp of garlic salt. Believe me, this is not enough, and you will need to add more as the cabbage cooks and you taste it.
- Put your pot on the burner and set to medium high. I usually put a lid on but leave it cracked so it doesn't boil over. Open a window.
