Originally from Jeju island, perfect for making kimchi or adding to stews and soups. The seeds of this line came from a farmer from Jeju Island, the volcanic island on the Southern part of Korea. This is a heritage Chinese cabbage variety, also called "Gueok" or "Gueokbeachu". The plants grow well in our climate, making compact, slightly elongated heads with a cream coloured heart reaching up to 2kg. The flavour is mild yet typical Chinese cabbage with a twist of Indian mustard. It's traditionally used to make kimchi as well as other Korean dishes such as Gochujang (cabbage soup) or Ssam (cabbage wrap). (Approximate seed count - 80)
