Every week I get a box with regional vegetables, and this time this one came. I tried looking for cabbage, but I could not find anything similar. Do you know what is it? How is it cooked?

What does it look like when you remove the outer leaves? – bruglesco Jun 22 '18 at 12:48

This looks a lot like a sweetheart cabbage... it does not look very new though.

Is there more than one thing called 'Napa cabbage'? The thing Wiki shows under that name is what I know as 'chinese leaves' and has little resemblance to the OP's item, which I would also identify as Sweetheart cabbage. – Spagirl Jun 22 '18 at 9:55

Napa cabbage has more of a bullet than a teardrop shape to it... – rackandboneman Jun 22 '18 at 11:33

This is a pointed cabbage, there are many varieties and it's hard to say which one. Cooking-wise they are in general not as tough as round cabbages, and a bit sweeter. You still prepare them as any other cabbage, just reduce the cooking time a bit. I personally think that boiling this type is a waste, I usually saute them.
