Red cabbage looks like green cabbage except, well, it's red. Or, to be more specific, it's a lovely magenta.
Red cabbage heads tend to be a bit smaller than green cabbages, but look for similarly tightly packed, moist-looking leaves and heads that feel heavy for their size. Red cabbage is delicious thinly sliced in salads like Red Cabbage Slaw, mixed into slaws with green cabbage, or cooked (this Caraway Red Cabbage is a personal favourite!).
Note: red cabbage turns an odd blue color when cooked. Mitigate this effect by adding some sort of acid (vinegar or lemon juice are common choices) when cooking it.
