Food Focus - Napa Cabbage



Napa Cabbage is a type of chinese cabbage. It is an Asian specialty that combines the thin crisp texture of lettuce with the fresh peppery tang of juicy cabbage. Napa Cabbage has very few calories, plenty of fiber and small amounts of vitamins A, C, and minerals are present. It is a main ingredient in egg rolls and is excellent fresh, stir-fried, or pickled as kimchee.
