Cabbage is closely related to crops such as broccoli, cauliflower, and brussels sprouts. They can be green, purple, or white. Cabbage has a good source of dietary fiber as well as vitamin K and vitamin C.
When choosing a cabbage, select a cabbage head that is firm and dense with a crisp, colorful leaves that are shiny and free from any blemishes. Avoid buying precut cabbage as once the cabbage is cut, it can being to lose vitamin C content. Store in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
Cabbage can be prepared in many different ways. It can be pickled, fermented, stewed, steamed, sauteed, braised, or even eaten raw. Finely shredded cabbage is the main ingredient in Cole Slaw Recipes. To retain the most nutrients and keep the flavor, sauteeing cabbage is the way to go.
