Product details
Cabbage is a cool-season biennial vegetable grown for its dense, spherical or elongated heads of tightly packed, waxy leaves. Depending on the variety—such as green, red, or crinkled Savoy—a mature head typically weighs between 1 and 3 pounds and features a crisp, firm texture with a flavor profile that ranges from peppery when raw to sweet when cooked. Botanically part of the Brassica family, it is a nutritional powerhouse, offering high concentrations of vitamins C and K, dietary fiber, and antioxidants while remaining very low in calories. For optimal shelf life, firm heads should be stored in high-humidity, cold environments, where they can maintain their structural integrity and moisture for several weeks.
