Also called Chinese cabbage, this oblong-shaped variety has thick, crisp stems and frilly, deep magenta-red leaves.
The flavor is slightly sweeter than green Napa cabbage.
The rich red color reflects a high concentration of anthocyanin antioxidants that play key preventive roles in protecting the body from several human diseases. Red Napa Cabbage is also a good source of zinc, vitamins A, C, and calcium.
While standard red head cabbage turns an odd blue color when cooked, the leafier Red Napa cabbage holds its vibrant coloring.
