Picking cabbages.

I picked my first savoy cabbage yesterday for sunday lunch.  This is the first time I have grown cabbages.  I think I might have picked it too early though, as although the outer leaves were a nice, dark green, the inner leaves where very white and pale. Have I picked it a bit early and should leave the rest to ripen?  How do you know when they are ready?

Attached is a pic (with some of the other constituents of sunday lunch!!  ) showing what it looked like when I picked it. It tasted nice, but reckon it could be better!

That's good to know. The innards were a bit bitter though, so wasn't sure if they would sweeten up with some more growth.  A big knob of butter soon sorted it out though!

Did you remember a bit of black pepper?

Definitely!  Yum!

And a grating of nutmeg for me😊
