This winter variety is specially adapted to the Manresa orchards and, in reality, it is a cross between the varieties of green cabbage and Easter cabbage.
Arising from the crossing between green cabbage and Pàsqua cabbage, the green cabbage from Manresa has a dark greenish tint. Of medium dimensions, it is a winter variety that stands out for its intense taste.
It is distributed in greengrocers and market stores in Bages, in season.
Like other cabbages, it is rich in vitamin C and has an important content of folic acid. It is a winter cabbage and lately it is being integrated into organic crops. It stands as an ideal cabbage to make the trinxat, but it can also be consumed boiled with potato, accompanied by meat or sausage, or other winter dishes.
