A few quick notes

1. Match the preparation in the method

Take a look at the chopping, slicing or shaving step before bringing the parts together. Use the preparation described there so the food goes into the next stage in the form the recipe expects.

2. Give the simmer its place

Keep the simmering stage in the sequence when planning the meal. Follow the heat and texture checks in that step rather than rushing straight to the finish.

3. Remember the occasional stir

Keep the pan where you can return for the stirring step in the method. Use the stated heat and finish check while it warms or cooks.

A few questions you might have

What should I get ready before starting?

Set out the pot. Read the first preparation step before you get going: Mince your garlic cloves, dice the onion, peel and slice the carrots, slice the celery, dice the bell pepper, and chop the cabbage into 1-inch pieces.

Which little step is worth remembering?

Take a look at the chopping, slicing or shaving step before bringing the parts together. Use the preparation described there so the food goes into the next stage in the form the recipe expects.

What check should I look for as it cooks?

Keep this part of the method in view: Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and allow it to continue to simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 40 minutes or until the cabbage is to your desired tenderness.

How do I plan the ingredient amounts?

Keep the refrigerator at 40°F or below, use refrigerated leftovers within 3–4 days, and reheat hot leftovers to 165°F, checked with a food thermometer. Follow any shorter package limit.
