Cabbage is a staple British crop, and is one of the few vegetables that grows well into the winter. Some of our organic red cabbage comes from Will Edwards’s Lincolnshire farm, which is called New Farm, even though his family first began farming there in the 1700s.

Abel & Cole handles celery, celeriac, peanuts and nuts on site. Due to our packing process and re-use of boxes there is a risk of cross-contamination from these, and all other allergens.

Almost all of the cabbage can be used, although the outer leaves can be peeled off if they are thick and tough. Slice the cabbage and remove the thick stem from the centre. Rinse the cabbage once sliced. For salads you should chop or tear the cabbage and use raw. To cook, just boil or steam the separated leaves for 8-10 minutes. Cabbage leaves can also be used as a "packaging" material for other ingredients. Cabbage should be used quickly before it toughens. Store it, wrapped, in the bottom of your fridge.
Don’t forget to wash your fruit and veg before use.
