Cabbage is a versatile leafy vegetable from the Brassica family, related to broccoli, kale, and Brussels sprouts. Its firm, tightly packed head has a mild, slightly sweet flavor and a crisp texture that holds up well both raw and cooked. Green and red varieties are widely available, and the vegetable can be eaten raw in slaws and salads, fermented into sauerkraut or kimchi, or cooked in soups, stews, and stir-fries.
Nutritionally, cabbage is very low in calories and fat while providing dietary fiber, vitamin C, and vitamin K, along with small amounts of several B vitamins. Because it adds bulk and crunch for relatively few calories, it is a popular ingredient in balanced and calorie-conscious meal plans.
