January King

January King cabbage

Purple-flushed, frost-hardy, and absolutely stunning in the winter garden. The outer leaves go deep violet in cold weather while the heart stays pale green. Tastes as good as it looks.

Slow-braised cabbage

Quarter the head, place in a pot with butter, stock, a splash of cider vinegar, and a bay leaf. Cover and braise in a low oven for an hour until meltingly tender. Winter eating at its finest.
