White cabbage is a firm, round ball with closed leaves. White cabbage is very tasty to eat and easy to prepare. White cabbage is also used to make sauerkraut. White cabbage has a neutral flavour. So you can vary it endlessly. What is also interesting: it is never expensive. White cabbage is best stored in the fridge.
Preparation & storage
Storage
You can keep white cabbage in the fridge for several weeks. It can also be stored on the fruit rack, but its shelf life will be shorter.
Ready-to-eat (pre-cut) white cabbage can be kept in the fridge for a few days, covered with cling film.
Fresh white cabbage can be kept in the freezer after blanching (2-4 minutes) for up to 12 months.
Cooked white cabbage can be kept in the fridge for 2 days or in the freezer for 3 months in a sealed storage container.
How do you know if fresh white cabbage is no longer good? The cabbage is mouldy or discoloured. You can recognise this decay by smelling or looking carefully.
