there’s so much wild shit out there like, they got a cross between brussel sprouts and kale now, it grows little kale nuggets, it’s weird

Im a huge fan of broccolini except idfk what to call it because that’s apparently a trade mark of the Del Monte corporation and other places call it “sweet baby broccoli” but that’s INACCURATE because it ISN’T BABY BROCCOLI it’s actually a cross between BROCCOLI and GAI LAN which yields the succulent floral broccoli tops combined with the crisp crunchy asparagus like stalk of the gai lan and altogether a super premium ultra vegetable. I love that shit

If you want broccolini tips i’ve been tossing it in a light lemon garlic vinaigrette and then throwing it on the char grill until it’s charred and people go omg your broccolini, it is a so amazing

Anyway what are some other good weird brassicas y’all enjoy

  • Im wondering if that cut works with hassleback potatoes to make fancy accordion potatoes (on that note the initial cut would probably be easier if they put the radish between two cutting boards so the gap serves as a guard so the knife doesn’t slice through. Alternatively i guess i could Get Good and free hand it like they do)
