Cabbage
Cabbage is a herbaceous plant of the cruciferous family. This vegetable has firm leaves and is characterized by the fact that they are stacked one on top of the other, forming a round and compact head. This head is a very pale green, almost yellow, although we can also find it in the market with different shades of darker green and even red or purple, typical of red cabbage.
In the market we find the following varieties of cabbage: green cabbage, curly cabbage, purple cabbage or red cabbage.
