This tangy-sweet salad will convince you that cabbage deserves your attention.

Katherine Gillen

Is it just us, or is cabbage suddenly cool? The crunchy, cruciferous vegetable is in every salad and veggie bowl this side of our TikTok feed, and it makes sense. It’s hardier than lettuce, surprisingly versatile and adaptable to flavor profiles beyond the usual mayo-based slaw. If you’re not convinced, try our recipe for cabbage-fennel salad with Honeycrisp apples. It’s a little tangy, a little sweet and a refreshing change of pace from the countless bowls of chili you’ll eat this fall. (Feel free to make it ahead, but slice the apples just before serving to prevent them from turning brown.)
