Notes

For best results, use a quality vegetable broth to enhance the flavors of the stew. Adjust seasoning to taste, especially if using store-bought broth which may contain varying salt levels. If you prefer a thicker stew, mash some of the potatoes directly in the pot before serving. Enjoy your cabbage stew with a slice of crusty bread for a complete meal.
