Savoy cabbage is a great side dish for roasts, poultry and game.
In autumn and winter it goes excellently with strong sauces, it simply works and is healthy!

Therefore, many raw food fans eat the tender leaves without cooking and cut the leaves finely as an insert in autumnal and winter salads.
If you want to preserve your intestines, you prefer to boil the leaves, so the cabbage is more digestible.

In Swiss German it is called Wirz or Köhli and in Austria it is simply cabbage.
