OH and I won't eat it more than twice a week; close family, extended family, friends and neighbours have seen quite enough of it already and the season is yet young.
I've never tried, but wonder if it would survive being frozen or would it go into a mushy mess?

Blanch the leave for 21/2 minutes stems for 3 and then put them in cold water for the same time. Dry them on a towel so they're nice and dry and then put them on trays and fast freeze them...then stick them in bags.Keep for 12 months. Better to use it in stuff but if he's not too fussy we've used it as leaves.

I froze some last year and it was nice to grab for adding to soups and for bubble and squeak, also warmed with a little butter. I tried white cabbage too on recommendation of a neighbour but that was yeuch.
