On the cabbage theme … I like the look of this … but think I’d cook the cabbage just a bit more than in the pic

What is hispi cabbage please? Some sites say it is Chinese cabbage but it looks more like spring cabbage in the pics.

On the subject of Napa/Chinese cabbage vs Hispi, I find Fuchsia Dunlop’s recipe for Chinese cabbage with Chinkiang black vinegar is just as good, if different with Hispi instead

Re: Foodies In The News
I found a link which says it is often mis-named as Chinese cabbage.
Thanks, this makes much more sense.

Sweetheart and Greyhound are both types of Hispi cabbage.

I had just finished reading that recipe before coming here KC2 and thought it looked nice. Not sure why they think its retro - maybe the sultanas.

Re: Foodies In The News
I don’t see what’s retro about it either, you’d have been lucky to find canned coconut milk in the 70s, I used the solid coconut cream that came in little boxes
I’m not convinced, described as a Persian chick pea stew for four people it uses 1 can chick peas and 2 of coconut milk., an odd ratio and not many chick peas. Do Iranians use much coconut?

It really does! And the restaurant she mentions in the piece looks amazing.

Re: Foodies In The News
I disagree with the use of bicarbonate, it does nothing useful if cooking good quality pulses and I think you can taste it
But my main issue with that recipe is a lack of sourness, it needs tamarind (which improves the colour of the source as a bonus)

Just saw this - sadly, it's been a very, very, very long time since I bought a baguette in France
