For city dwellers, the issue of storing vegetables in winter is perhaps the most important. In this regard, having a garage and a cellar, a basement, or, in extreme cases, a balcony, helps out.
While potatoes can be safely hidden in a cupboard under the kitchen sink, this won’t work with cabbage.
Storing white cabbage requires special conditions and definitely not at room temperature.
Where to store cabbage in an apartment
If there is no basement or garage, then the best option is a glazed and insulated balcony.
In this case, it will be enough to put the heads of cabbage in boxes or crates.
It is necessary to control the air temperature so that the heads of cabbage do not freeze, otherwise the crop will rot.
Before packing the cabbage into boxes, each head of cabbage must be wrapped in paper or several layers of cling film.
If there is no balcony
In this case, there is nothing left to do but put the vegetable stock in the refrigerator.
This option is not the best from the point of view that large heads of cabbage take up a lot of space.
And in this case, you need to wrap each head of cabbage in cling film.
This way the vegetable will last longer and the leaves will not wither.
