This delicious broccolini resembles a broccoli raab, but with an asparagus-like stem. Aspabroc Broccolini has a sweet, delicate flavour with a subtle, peppery taste. The flavour is milder and sweeter when cooked. When eaten raw, the vegetable has a tender yet crunchy texture. Aspabroc is a nutritional powerhouse, full of vitamins and minerals the body needs to stay healthy. Aspabroc broccolini seeds are a natural hybrid of broccoli and gai lan. Spring planting leads to summer harvest of this unique variety. This is the same broccolini that has been available in grocery stores for the last few years.
