it's just the core at the bottom, near the stem (the core doesn't run through the whole cabbage)-- so when you cut it in half lengthwise, you'll see a little triangle-shaped, dense core at the bottom, near where it grows from. that's the core-- it's also entirely edible, and can be eaten if sliced thinly (i.e. if I'm making sauerkraut or braised cabbage, I'll throw it in, but here since it's only getting briefly wilted, I discard).

THANK YOU. I feel like I was messing all my cabbage stuff up (strangely, I've become a cabbage fan).
