Red Cabbage

Red cabbage, also known as purple cabbage, is a versatile vegetable commonly found in the produce section of grocery stores. This cabbage variety is known for its vibrant purplish-red color and crisp texture. It is often used in salads, coleslaw, stir-fries, and pickled dishes.

Red cabbage is packed with nutrients, including vitamins C and K, as well as antioxidants. It adds a pop of colour and a nutritional boost to any meal. When selecting red cabbage at the store, look for heads that are firm, heavy for their size, and free of blemishes.

To store red cabbage, keep it in the crisper drawer of your refrigerator and use it within a week for the best flavour and texture. Remember to wash the cabbage thoroughly before use, and consider incorporating it into your meals for a colourful and nutrient-rich addition.
