How to Remove Cabbage Leaves without Damaging Them

  1. Cut out the hard center core, using a knife (use a petty knife if available).
  2. For an iceberg lettuce, use a ceramic knife and take out the central core with your hand.
  3. Run tap water (not so briskly) into the gap between the leaves.
  4. The water accumulates in the gaps and the leaves come off naturally because of the weight of the water in the gaps.
  5. With this method, you can remove whole leaves without damaging.
  6. After several leaves are removed, score around the center core to remove other leaves.
