Wash well before use
Suggested uses:
Cabbage, carrot and lemon salad - chop into thin pieces, mix with grated carrot, add the skin of one grated lemon & the juice of the same lemon. Add sea salt and a pinch or two of powdered coriander seed (if you have it), mix well and serve as a side vegetable/cold salad.
Boil Cabbage: Chop the cabbage into thin strips, add to a pan of boiling water, bring to a simmer for 10-15minutes and serve as a vegetable with any heart meal. Simple!
Sauerkraut - make your own sauerkraut - it's almost fool proof - ultra simple and easy and all you need is a 1L kilner jar, sea salt, cabbage and water. There are plenty of youtube videos and books describing how to make it. Cultured food for life by Donna Schwenk is a good book for starting with. The easiest method is to simple chop the cabbage, add it to a sterilised kilner jar and cover with a 3% brine solution (3g of salt to every 100ml of water), release the 'gas' from the ferment every day and after 4-6weeks you will have a long lasting lactic acid, probiotic rich food to eat.
Cabbage juice: Blend 1/4 cabbage with water and a squeeze of lemon or lime juice a pinch of sea salt if desired and drink up!
