Ingredients
- 1 head cabbage green or red, savoy, or napa cabbage
Instructions
- Remove any damaged or browned outer leaves and rinse under cold water.
- Place the head of cabbage on a cutting board or clean work surface with the stem side down.
- With a chef’s knife, cut in half lengthwise, all the way through the core. Cut each half in half so you have four quarters.
- Remove the triangular core by cutting into the core at an angle and remove it from each quarter.
- Place the quarters, cut side down, on the cutting board. Use a chef’s knife to cut the quarters into slices cutting lengthwise. If you want to chop the cabbage, cut the cabbage quarter crosswise along the width.

Notes
- Use a long chef's knife to cut the cabbage. This way you can cut through it in one go rather than lots of small cuts.
- Make sure that your knife is sharp. Sharp knives are less likely to slip and cut you.
- Remove the core of the cabbage as well as older outer leaves as these can be tougher and harder to eat.
