Chef Wastell’s Notes: “Visually stunning, layering a dark purple blush against glowing green color variations, ‘Noelle’ cabbage offers complex flavor, sturdy texture, and incredible culinary versatility in an eloquent package.”
“Tightly packed heads, quite heavy for their size yield a sizable but tender core, and when prepared raw, produce bright, lightly piquant flavor and texture that holds up well in lightly dressed slaw-type salads as well as ‘quick’ kraut applications”
“A hot wood-fire grill proved a personal favorite - resulting in crispy charred halves of cabbage with meltingly tender centers, and pan roasting wedges while basting occasionally with butter allowed for an intensely savory and meaty supper centerpiece.”
