These leaves can be naturally air-dried to form a "protective film" to keep the water inside the cabbage from losing. Store the cabbage in a cool and ventilated place, pour it up and down after a period of time, and let the cabbage "breathe". When the temperature drops, it can be covered with straw mats, gunny bags, etc., but do not use paper, plastic products and other items to wrap cabbage separately.
