About Cabbage, raw
Cabbage is a dense, leafy member of the cruciferous family — the same group as broccoli and kale — built from tightly packed layers of crisp leaves. Cheap, hardy and long-keeping, it's a quiet staple of cuisines worldwide, eaten raw in slaws, fermented into sauerkraut and kimchi, or cooked down into soups and stir-fries.
Raw, it's about as light as food gets, with very few calories for a satisfying crunch. That low count hides a decent profile: cabbage is a good source of vitamin C and vitamin K, brings fiber and folate, and supplies the sulfur compounds characteristic of cruciferous vegetables.
Shredded raw it stays crisp and keeps the most vitamin C; cooking softens it and mellows its flavor. Either way it's one of the most economical vegetables you can put on a plate.
