Stonehead.

[tim]

A solid cabbage, but with a strong taste. Needs a dressing if eaten raw.

Yes, we love this variety - just cut some this morning for todays roast dinner  ;D

Big stem, but OK for stir fries?

[Suffolklad]

Not a problem - our goats enjoy the stems  ;D

[Mothy]

That looks great Tim, do you net against butterflies?

[tim]

Roughly!!
But the caterpillars took their toll.

Do you not peel and eat the stem Tim?  When I was stood at granny's elbow as she was preparing cabbage, that was my treat!

I think it would probably be the equivalent of kohl rabbi, nowadays, but delicious.

It beats raw carrot anyday.

Normally - but Stonehead is a bit strong.
