What is a pointed cabbage?
Pointed cabbage also called“hispi cabbage” or“sweatheart cabbage” is a kind of white cabbage with a cone shape and a light green colour.
The peculiarity of the pointed cabbage is that it is harvested in spring andsummer unlike most other varieties of cabbage which are winter vegetables.
Its taste is delicate and slightly sweet. It is therefore ideal raw in salads, cut finely for example. It can also be cooked in a wok like white cabbage or added to a ramen broth (Japanese soup).
Oven roasted, as in this recipe for Roasted Pointed Cabbage with Tahini Sauce, the cabbage develops a slight nutty taste.
