🥬🇬🇧 Fresh British Savoy Cabbage – Tender, Sweet & Full of Flavour
Our Fresh British Tender Savoy Cabbage has beautifully crinkled dark-green leaves, a mild natural sweetness and a wonderfully tender texture when cooked.
Savoy is softer and more delicate than many traditional cabbages, making it incredibly versatile. Quickly sauté it with garlic and butter, shred it into soups and stir-fries, gently braise it or use the larger leaves for homemade stuffed cabbage rolls.
Its distinctive crinkled leaves also hold sauces and seasonings beautifully, bringing plenty of flavour to simple home-cooked dishes.
Our Fresh British Tender Savoy Cabbage is carefully selected for freshness and quality.
Tender. Sweet. Fresh. A classic British green. 🥬✨
