About Savoy cabbage
Savoy cabbage is a leafy cabbage with crinkled, veined leaves and a loose, rounded head. Its leaves are typically green, with paler inner leaves, and are more tender than the smooth leaves of many storage cabbages.
It has a mild, slightly sweet cabbage flavour and a tender texture when cooked, while raw leaves remain crisp. It is used raw or cooked, including in soups, braises, and stuffed preparations. Whole heads and cut leaves are common forms.
