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.
