Ingredients
- 1 head cabbage red or green
Instructions
- Remove the tough outer leaves from the head.
- Place the head on a cutting board and cut in half with a knife.
- Put each half flat side down on the cutting board and cut in half again, making 4 wedges.
- Cut the center core stem from each wedge at an angle and remove.
- Process in your food processor, slice by hand using a knife or mandolin or grate with a box grater (see post for details of each method).
Notes
A full head of cabbage will stay fresh in the fridge wrapped in plastic (or in a plastic produce bag) for up to a month. Chopped or sliced cabbage will keep for up to 5 days if kept in an air-tight container or zip-top bag. It's best to store in the coldest part of your refrigerator or in the crisper drawer.
