Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Also known as Chinese or celery cabbage, napa cabbage has long, firm heads with crinkly, pale green leaves. Very large or firm heads may have a strong flavor.
  • tip 2
    You'll find tarragon vinegar near other flavored vinegars in gourmet food shops and most supermarkets.
  • tip 3
    If your store doesn’t carry chicken breast tenders, use boneless, skinless chicken breast halves instead.
