Today is World Cabbage Day, and of course, I was not going to let it pass without marking it.
If this is your first impression of me, it is probably quite fitting. Those close to me know I have long waved the cabbage flag, giving it hero status at the heart of many dishes across my menus and restaurants for over two decades, and growing tens of thousands of different varieties at
@ourfarm .
Growing up, when meat was not always on the table, cabbage often sat at the centre of our family meals. It was the affordable alternative then, and in today’s climate, it feels more relevant than ever.
It is hardy, incredibly versatile, and an ingredient that has always deserved far more respect than it is often given.
So for me, after genuinely championing cabbages for a long time, it feels only right to officially contribute to the Year of the Cabbage, seated in a wheelbarrow and surrounded by them.
Over the coming months, I am excited to share everything from cooking and how we grow them at
@ourfarm , alongside recipes that showcase their true potential, tips, ideas and much more.
Expect plenty of cabbage love coming your way.
Save this to your favourites so you do not miss any future cabbage posts.
