if your cabbages are ready for cooking, in order to avoid waste, cut them, wash them, freeze them, now you have a supply of fresh young cabbages, whenever you require them.

When you say 'cut them', do you mean harvest and freeze as whole heads (need a bloody big freezer) or chop them up into serving sizes and then freeze them?

Didn't realise they froze that well - thanks for the tip.

whatever size that is usually cooked, anyway you can always have it two days in a row, a big freezer is required, but you have garden fresh cabbage all year around.

We did that last year and worked a treat. Chopped it up into freezer bags after washing and blanching it and can take from freezer straight to pot
