Wombok Cabbage & Mint Salad
Wombok in Australia, Napa cabbage in the US, Chinese cabbage the world over! A member of the brassica family popular in Asian style cuisines, the leaves are lighter, more delicate and less waxy than the average cabbage. Wombok has a crisp, mild and slightly sweet flavour and is good eaten both raw and cooked.
I love this cabbage; it stores well and is versatile, and I find it a little easier for people to digest than some other cabbages. Mint is a culinary herb with medicinal properties. Mint is stimulating, aids digestion and has anti-inflammatory nutrient properties.
