Cabbage keeps best intact and in a bag in the crisper of your fridge. If you must cut and use only part of it, wrap the leftovers tightly in a plastic wrap to prevent from browning.
Cabbage is great when chopped or shredded and paired with other raw vegetables in a slaw. It can also be boiled, steamed, sauteed, and stir-fried. It should be cooked until just tender and not limp.
