About Pekin cabbage
Pekin cabbage, also known as napa cabbage, is a versatile and nutrient-dense vegetable originating from East Asia. This elongated leafy green is a staple in Chinese, Korean, and Japanese cuisines, commonly used in stir-fries, soups, and fermented dishes like kimchi. Rich in vitamins C and K, Pekin cabbage supports immune health and promotes strong bones. It's also a good source of folate, fiber, and antioxidants while being naturally low in calories and fat, making it ideal for healthy eating. Its mild, slightly sweet flavor and tender texture pair well with a variety of dishes. While exceptionally nutritious, it's worth noting that sodium levels can increase significantly when used in pickled or fermented recipes. However, as part of a balanced diet, Pekin cabbage offers a wealth of benefits that make it a wholesome choice for both traditional and modern meals.
