About Tongcai
Tongcai, also known as preserved Chinese cabbage, is a traditional pickled vegetable widely used in Asian cuisine, particularly in Chinese cooking. It is made by fermenting finely chopped mustard greens or Chinese cabbage with salt and other spices, resulting in a tangy, savory flavor profile. Packed with probiotics due to the fermentation process, Tongcai can support gut health and aid digestion. It is low in calories but relatively high in sodium, so it should be consumed in moderation by those monitoring their salt intake. Often used to enhance soups, stir-fries, and rice dishes, Tongcai adds depth and complexity to meals. While it delivers vitamins and minerals from the vegetables, its high sodium content means it’s best enjoyed as a flavorful complement rather than a staple ingredient in a balanced diet.
