{"product_id":"red-express-cabbage","title":"Red Express Cabbage","description":"\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eRed Express is a fast-maturing heirloom red cabbage variety that produces compact, round heads typically 6-8 inches in diameter, weighing 2-3 pounds, with dense, tightly wrapped leaves in a deep reddish-purple color that's vibrant and attractive when sliced (showing uniform purple-red throughout). The texture is crisp and firm with a sweet, mildly tangy flavor that's less pungent than many cabbages—excellent raw or cooked without excessive sulfur notes, and the heads resist splitting well even under variable conditions. It's perfect shredded raw for vibrant coleslaw and salads, fermented into sauerkraut or kimchi, sautéed or stir-fried as a colorful side, added to soups and stews, or roasted for caramelized sweetness and deeper flavor. This variety is a great fit for Utah because it's one of the earliest red cabbages available (quick to mature in our short cool-season windows), cold-tolerant for spring and fall planting in variable weather, and performs reliably in fertile, well-drained soil with full sun—making it a dependable option for home gardens here when using transplants to beat the heat or extend harvests.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Salt City Gardens","offers":[{"title":"Individual Plant","offer_id":44848928948333,"sku":"redex-cab-01","price":3.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2-Pack","offer_id":44907806883949,"sku":"redex-cab-02","price":5.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4-Pack","offer_id":44848928915565,"sku":"redex-cab-04","price":6.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0696\/6774\/9997\/files\/RedExpress.jpg?v=1773698689","url":"https:\/\/saltcitygardens.com\/products\/red-express-cabbage","provider":"Salt City Gardens","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
