Storage:
Remove any wilted or damaged outer leaves from the cabbage.
Leave the remaining outer leaves intact to protect the cabbage.
Rinse the cabbage under cold running water and pat dry with paper towels.
Wrap the cabbage tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil to keep it from drying out.
Store the wrapped cabbage in the crisper drawer of your refrigerator, where it can stay fresh for up to two weeks.
If you’ve already cut the cabbage, wrap the remaining pieces tightly in plastic wrap and store them in a resealable plastic bag in the refrigerator. Cooked cabbage can also be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to four days.
