Reply #24: Yep, give or take a few minutes.

But I like cabbage to taste like cabbage. You're probably better off with the longer cooking time to mellow out the texture and flavor (you will get more of an odor, but what the heck, it's tradition.)

on edit: I cook the cabbage until it's just done and don't let it stew. Smaller cabbage quarters take about 20 minutes, giant quarters more like 45-50 minutes.
