Organic Merlot Napa Cabbage (1 head)

Approximately 1.25-1.75 lb per head

Merlot Napa cabbage is a showstopper with gorgeous burgundy-purple outer leaves that fade to pale green and white at the center, making it almost too pretty to eat (almost!). The flavor is mild, sweet, and delicate—more tender and less assertive than regular green cabbage, with a subtle peppery note and none of that sulfurous bite. The leaves are crisp yet tender with a satisfying crunch, and the ribs are juicy and sweet. It's incredibly versatile: slice it thin for vibrant slaws and salads that need no cooking, use it in stir-fries where it wilts beautifully in minutes, add to soups and ramen, make kimchi or quick pickles, or use the tender inner leaves as wraps for lettuce cups. The purple color adds stunning visual appeal to raw preparations, though it will fade slightly when cooked. This is napa cabbage with an upgrade—sweeter, more tender, and way more gorgeous on the plate.
