How is Cabbage used in Thai cooking?

Cabbage is a kitchen workhorse - crisp, mild, and sturdy enough to use raw or cooked. Its leaves wrap fillings and its shredded heart goes into stir-fries and fresh plates, adding crunch and a clean, faintly sweet flavour. It's often served raw alongside spicier dishes to cool the palate. Like other leafy vegetables we don't keep it stored in the kitchen; it comes in fresh when a dish needs it, so the leaves stay tight and crisp rather than wilting.
