CABBAGE
our organic & conventional cabbage
Cabbage belongs to the cruciferous family and is related to cauliflower, broccoli and Brussels sprouts. This hardy vegetable has heads that are are tight with thick, veined leaves. Cabbage is an incredibly versatile ingredient - shifting in flavor in texture depending on how you prepare it. Cabbage is nutrient-dense and packed with vitamin C, fiber-rich, and red cabbage contains anthocyanins that keep your heart healthy.

shopping
Pick heads that are tight and feel heavy for their size. Look for heads with shiny, compact leaves. Avoid cabbage with any discoloration, cracks, bruises, or blemishes.
storing
Whole cabbages will keep in a cool, well-ventilated place for two weeks. Cover cut cabbage in plastic wrap and store in the crisper section of the fridge for up to two days. For best results, leave the heads whole, and don't wash or cut them until you're ready to prep.
preparing
Discard outer leaves if loose or limp, cut into quarters, then wash. Remove the hard core in the center then chop or finely shred the leaves. Note: To achieve the tastiest results, slightly sauté, boil, or stir-fry. Overcooking cabbage can intensify its strong odor and add a limp texture.
