大頭菜

I was surprised at how fast these sprouted—germination was really quick compared to other seeds I've tried. The swollen stems have a mild, cabbage-like flavor that's perfect sliced raw in salads.

I tossed the seeds into my garden bed in late summer and was amazed how quickly they sprouted. The swollen stems had a crisp, mild cabbage taste that was perfect sliced raw with salt. Already planning a bigger patch next season.

Planted these in early spring and the swollen stems were ready in just a few weeks. I sliced one raw like an apple and the mild cabbage taste was a pleasant surprise. Perfect for adding to soup on a chilly evening.
