wild cabbage than most domesticated forms.

RECIPE
Ingredients:

2. Pull the leaves from the stalks into chip size pieces (you may want to save the stalks for soup).
3. Place in a colander and rinse thoroughly.
4. Place on a baking sheet and sprinkle with a little salt. Each chip should be covered with salt once. Overdoing it could make it too salty.
