I find cabbage juice on its own quite unpalatable so I decided to juice it together with sweet gala apples to mask its bitterness. I used three gala apples and cabbage roughly the volume of half a gala apple. It produced 400 ml of juice and the taste was 100% of apple juice. No taste of cabbage detected at all! The next few times I make this juice, I’m going to increase the amount of cabbage to see how much I can put without the juice tasting weird.

Highlights

  1. Cabbage is well known for its properties in Ayurveda
  2. Belongs to the Brassica family
  3. Cabbage juice is an excellent source of vitamins K and C

It can be consumed by various means, be it boiled, cooked, steamed, sautéed, or even juiced.
