Papaw’s Garden Supply: Helping The Next Generation To Grow With Nature.
Murdoc’s Pointed Head Cabbage variety produces large, cone-shaped heads that average 7-8 lbs. They are packed with very tender and flavorful leaves (it has a sweeter flavor than round cabbage varieties). The heads have heart-shaped centers, and the thinner leaves give it a silky texture perfect for fresh or lightly sautéed cabbage dishes. Murdoc pointed-head cabbage is especially suited for weisskraut, a Bavarian specialty that is milder and more tender than typical sauerkraut. It is also excellent for coleslawscole slaws, stir fries, and sautés.
