History
Cabbage (Brassica oleracea) has been cultivated for over 4,000 years, with origins in Europe and the Mediterranean region. It was historically valued for its nutritional and medicinal properties, used by ancient Greeks and Romans to aid digestion, treat ailments, and as a staple food. To preserve cabbage and extend its shelf life, drying techniques were developed, leading to the creation of cabbage flakes. These flakes retain the flavor, nutrients, and fiber of fresh cabbage while offering convenience and long-term storage. Today, cabbage flakes are widely used globally in soups, stews, sauces, seasoning blends, and instant food products.
