Cabbage

Description

Cabbages are from the brassica family and are one of the oldest known vegetables. To prepare cabbage remove any tough, coarse or damaged leaves and cut or shred depending on how you are going to use it. Cabbage should be cooked for a short time until tender, but still slightly crisp (it should be a nice bright green, not dull and yellow – this means it’s over-cooked). Raw shredded cabbage is the main ingredient of coleslaw. Or why not try making saurkraut which is a pickled cabbage dish.
