Chinese cabbage, also known as Wombok and Napa cabbage in the USA, is widely enjoyed in salads, stir-fries and other traditional Asian cuisine dishes. Chinese cabbage is very similar to traditional cabbage; however, it has a savoyed leaf and offers a slightly sweeter taste and a tender, juicy texture, but without the intense brassica flavour. It is often used as a replacement for traditional cabbage.
The nutritional content of Chinese cabbage also differs slightly from cabbage. While both vegetables are low in calories and have a high fibre content, Chinese cabbage contains more potassium, vitamin A, and vitamin C, which can help to boost your immune system.
