Sources and commentaries

• English
  • In the United States, specialists tend to include savoy cabbage within the Capitata Group. In Europe, the distinction is quite clearcut in most languages. MC
• Dutch
  • The Dutch distinguish types with yellowish leaves: gele savvoiekool, gele kool; and types with green leaves: groene savooiekool, groene kool. The color qualifiers are not ambiguous, as they are never used for witte kool or rode kool. MC
  • Savoy cabbage, when sown thick and cut very young, gives a leafy crop called snijmoes (see Brassica napus Pabularia Group). MC
  • Putjeskool. It owes its name to the small pit (putje) it has at the top of the head, due to the fact that leaves don't overlap each other as in other varieties, but end with a crinkled margin before reaching the top. There are different types of putjeskool and also different names, such as Bredase, Zwijndrechtse, Westlandse or Deventer, but such names are more or less used one for the other."
