# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • Incredible umami flavor from the white miso and butter combination.
  • Simple preparation with only 10 minutes of active prep time.
  • A versatile side dish that is naturally vegetarian and easily made gluten-free or vegan.
02 -
  • Keep the cabbage core intact when cutting to prevent the wedges from falling apart during roasting and turning.
  • Turn the wedges carefully halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning on both sides.
  • Use unsalted butter to better control the saltiness, as miso paste is naturally high in sodium.
