White cabbage

White cabbage is a type of vegetable that belongs to the cabbage family. It is a round, firm vegetable with tightly packed pale green leaves. White cabbage is grown in fields and is harvested when it reaches maturity. It is commonly found in supermarkets and grocery stores all year round.

To produce white cabbage, seeds are planted in the soil, and the plant grows over several months until it forms a large, compact head. The outer leaves are removed, and the cabbage head is harvested by cutting it from the plant. After washing and packaging, white cabbage is ready to be sold and used in various culinary dishes.

White cabbage is often listed on food labels because it is a versatile ingredient used in numerous recipes. It can be shredded and added to salads, stir-fried with other vegetables, fermented to make sauerkraut, or even stuffed and baked. White cabbage provides a crisp texture and a slightly sweet and earthy flavour to dishes such as coleslaw, soups, stir-fries, and pickled foods. It is a popular choice for coleslaw, kimchi, and cabbage rolls.
