Cabbage varieties and best uses

The conversions above are the same whatever variety you use; the difference is what each is good for. Here is how the common cabbage varieties compare.

Variety	Best for
Green	Everyday slaws, sautés, and braises: firm pale-green leaves with a neutral flavour, the all-purpose supermarket head.
Savoy	Soup, stuffed leaves, and wraps: crinkled tender leaves that hold dressing and wrap easily.
Red (Purple)	Slaws and pickles: same firm leaves as Green with crimson colour and a peppery edge that holds when raw.
Napa (Chinese leaf)	Stir-fries, dumplings, and kimchi: looser pale leaves that wilt fast and stay sweet.
Pointed (Hispi / Sweetheart / Caraflex)	Buttery braises and roasted wedges: cone-shaped, sweet, and tender; cooks faster than round cabbage.

Which should I pick?

For everyday slaws, sautés, and braises, Green is the supermarket default: firm leaves, neutral flavour, the all-rounder. No Green? Savoy has crinkled tender leaves that absorb dressing better. Red gives slaws and pickles colour and a slight peppery edge. For stir-fries and quick wilts, Napa (Chinese leaf) cooks faster and stays sweet. Pointed (Hispi / Sweetheart) is the pick for buttery braises and roasted wedges.
