Cabbage, broccoli and cauliflower

Cabbage can last for ages in the fridge. You can store it quartered in a zip-top bag if space is an issue.

Broccoli and cauliflower are hardy and versatile. Whole crowns stay crisp for up to two weeks in plastic bags or containers with lids.

  • Uncut heads can be refrigerated without a bag.
  • Once cut, seal in an airtight container.
