Raw cabbage anyone?

This is more like what I’m about to cook/eat, but I liked these colors:

And I always like seeing pics of actual cooking:

I love red cabbage just like that. Not cooked.

Raw is probably how most of the cabbage at our house gets eaten - cut it into wedges, a couple of big pinches of salt, and munch, munch, munch!

I think most Americans eat raw cabbage in a slaw, shredded with carrots in a mayonnaise type dressing, which I don't like. I like it in a salad with other veggies mostly. I also like to make fried rice and at the very end, toss in chopped red cabbage but just enough heat to warm it, not cook it. I think most people, Americans included, prefer cabbage cooked. I don't.

That’s a Japanese thing as well - finely shredded raw cabbage served with sesame dressing. It’s good!

I'd be all over that.

We (Americans) do eat a lot of raw vegetables, though it’s usually with dip. That doesn’t typically include cabbage, though.

Cole slaw is a big thing, at least down South. Pretty much every BBQ shack will have it as a side. In some parts, it is actually a topping on a pulled pork sandwich.

When I have it on hand, I always throw some shredded raw cabbage in whatever salad I’m making and MrsT always comments on it - “I have to say, I really like the cabbage in this!”

If you know where to go around here, it’s also a topping for hamburgers:

Cabbage on Baja fish tacos is very common... and tasty. That, and a squeeze of lime.

I love raw shredded red or green cabbage in a salad. I also like raw shredded green cabbage dressed in vinaigrette (with a dab of mayo added) as a side with boiled corned beef and potatoes.

Raw cabbage is a good topping in place of lettuce, because it doesn't easily wilt on hot foods like lettuce does. It stays nice and crunchy.

Cabbage in a burger?? No way would that fly down here.
I make slaw occasionally and it's pretty dam good. Using Savoy cabbages and red also.

Slawburgers are a regional specialty in parts of the US. I make them occasionally, grew up with them, as every dairy bar sold them.

Try it sometime. I'll make you a deal, you try cabbage on a burger, and I'll try... beets on a burger.

My Mother gets shredded cabbage as a salad. I like cabbage, mainly the green type, so long as it’s not cooked to within an inch of its life as my Mother did often
