Bring the water to a boil. Place shredded cabbage or wedges into the steamer basket and place the basket in the pan of boiling water. Cover and cook shredded cabbage for 5 to 8 minutes and wedges for 10 to 12 minutes. Cook only until tender-crisp.
While you are cutting the cabbage boil water in a large pot. Once the water is boiling place one or two wedges of cabbage into the pot. Blanch the cabbage for 3 minutes and then remove it from the pot. Place the cabbage on wire racks to drain and cool for an hour or two. I recommend placing a towel under the racks. Once the cabbage is pretty dry wrap each wedge with plastic wrap and then place into freezer bags.
