Qty :Red cabbage has powerful nutritional properties that can help improve one's health and may have the capacity to treat or prevent disease. One can tell from just a quick glance that its intense purple color reveals a strong concentration of antioxidants.
Purple cabbage (red cabbage) releases color when cooked or soaked in water. This is because it contains anthocyanins, natural pigments that change color depending on the pH level of their environment. Here's how it behaves:
In Water: If you boil or soak purple cabbage in water, it releases a purple or blue tint into the liquid.
With Acid (e.g., lemon juice, vinegar): The cabbage turns bright red or pink.
With Alkaline Substances (e.g., baking soda): The cabbage turns blue or even green.
This color change is why purple cabbage is sometimes used as a natural pH indicator in science experiments.
Is it ok to soak the cabbage in baking soda
Soaking purple cabbage in baking soda (alkaline solution) is generally not recommended for regular consumption. While a small amount of baking soda is not inherently toxic, it can affect both the nutrition and safety of the cabbage
Why It’s Not Ideal:
Loss of Nutrients – Baking soda can break down vitamin C and other beneficial antioxidants in cabbage, reducing its health benefits.
Unnatural Taste & Texture – It may make the cabbage taste soapy and change its texture, making it mushy.
Too Much Alkalinity Can Be Harmful – Consuming excess baking soda can lead to digestive issues like bloating and stomach discomfort.
Safe usage
If you accidentally soaked it in baking soda water, rinse it well before cooking.
For culinary use, lemon juice or vinegar is a better option for enhancing cabbage color naturally.
Usage: Raw in salads or regular vegetable cooking
