The German butterkohl cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. costata) is a vegetable specialty with delicate flavor and very tender leaves. It is a bright green, loose-headed wrinkly kale with fleshy white ribs and wide-spreading leaves. Similar forms are also known as Portuguese cabbage or Tronchuda kale, and it also tolerates warmer climates just like those, but it has wrinkled leaves. Popular forms of preparation are steamed leaves or leaf stalks, which can be used similarly to chard. It is also suitable for raw consumption.
