seasonal
VARIETY

It is almost time for winter cabbage.  I am always grateful to those of our local farmers that have the forethought to plant cold-hardy cabbage in late August so that we can have at least one locally-grown GREEN veggie this winter.  It is neither a high-yield crop, nor is it a high profit crop.  Aside from how delightful it tastes in Irish stew, I am fascinated by the other worldliness of cabbage layers. If you compare the outside leaves to the interior leaves of the cabbage head, you would assume one was some sort of alien mutant version of the other with changes in color, texture AND taste.  This next Call wants your other worldliness.  Take a look…
