Napa

This is also primarily used for ethnic Chinese dishes and does not play a leading role in foods of the indigenous peoples of Malaysia, Thailand, or Vietnam. Still, since Chinese cuisine has so much presence in the region, Southeast Asian markets usually carry napa cabbage in both its round heads and longer, barrel-shaped forms. Lemony Vietnamese cabbage salads often feature this crinkly-leafed, light green cabbage. Thai: pahk ghat kao, Vietnamese: cải bắc-thảo
