# RPS, how many of you knew that red cabbage is bluey-purpley when in the ground!?

I've been helping an old friend on his allotment, I keep seeing/learning stuff that amazes me and he looks at me like I'm a moron, esp when I take a picture of it with my phone, but this was real pretty!

OK, I know it's Danish, not Swedish, but the recipe (and especially the word "kogebogen") sounds hilarious read in Swedish Chef style.
