Napa Cabbage

Posted on 18. Jan, 2010 by grace in Ingredients

Napa Cabbage has a mild sweet taste and is usually added to stir-fries and soups or is eaten raw in salads. Like tofu, it absorbs the flavors of the foods around it. It is known to be healthier than western cabbage. It is rich in vitamins and thus helps protect your skin and eyes. Look for firm tighthly packed heads with green leaves that are not wilted or eaten by bugs. You can store tightly wrapped Napa cabbage in the refrigerator for up to three days.
