【What's the difference between white cabbage and green cabbage?】
White cabbage, which appears pale, has a short growth period, high water content, soft leaves, and less coarse fiber. It cannot be stored for long and can usually last for 10-15 days, appearing on the market in late September and mid-October each year.
The late-maturing cabbage appears green and has a longer growth period. The leaves are thick and tough, and there is more coarse fiber.
This greener cabbage is suitable for early consumption. After storage, the leaves become tender and the taste becomes sweeter. It is suitable for long-term storage and can usually last until around February of the following year.
