Chinese cabbage

Chinese cabbage, also known as Napa cabbage or leafy cabbage, is in season almost year-round. The heads can weigh up to 1 kg and have white-yellow to green, slightly wrinkled leaves with robust white ribs. Chinese cabbage has a crispy-fresh, mild, and digestible taste, and it is versatile in the kitchen, whether enjoyed fresh in salads or as raw food, or even steamed as a vegetable.

Chinese cabbage is healthy. It contains valuable vitamins, particularly folic acid, vitamin B6, and vitamin C, and is rich in minerals. Chinese cabbage also contains the secondary plant compounds typical of many cabbage varieties, which can stimulate the body’s natural defenses and help lower cholesterol levels.
