Any good? Thinking of adding it uncooked to my salad?

    All I know is they ate a lot of it in "A Christmas Story." According to Ralphie's mom, Ralphie loves red cabbage.

    I love red cabbage in salads. I'm not a huge fan of raw broccoli (unless it's chopped very fine), but if you enjoy it, go for it.

    I like raw red cabbage in salads, as well as raw cauliflower. Raw broccoli is nice, too, but it needs extra dressing, I find. It seems to soak up a lot in the florets.

    I think that was the stuff my Mom used to make - cooked cabbage and tomatoes. Nasty.

    Makes a pretty tasty coleslaw, too. Although the dressing will turn pinkish purple.

    I like it raw in salads, in a vinegar-based slaw, roasted in olive oil with salt, sauteed with peppers, onion and/other other veggies, and stir-fried with other veggies and chili garlic paste, dark soy sauce, and either hoisin or oyster sauce.

    Its always part of the salad that comes with my chicken kebab and has a lovely taste raw (even my dog likes it??) Also nice cooked with apple, raisins and a little vinegar

    Yummy! Ralphie and I love it, raw in salads or cooked and drizzled with cider vinegar.
