Cabbage Savoy
Life as a cabbage is pretty average. (We would imagine). Unless you’re a seductively delicious Savoy Cabbage, of course. This Italian heirloom dates back to pre-1885, and gardeners go a little crazy for its crinkled leaves and sweet flavour. No judgment – we are those gardeners.
The deep green leaves of this veggie are mild and earthy. They are great raw in salads or thinly sliced into soups and stir-fries. Basically, any dish that calls for some leafy goodness would do well to dabble with the Savoy Cabbage.
