Broccoli (Box 8kg) [PALC023]

Although due care is taken to update prices regularly, this product's price may vary from day-to-day due to weight, availability and size. The plant forms a tight head of flowers. Blue/green buds. Thick, fleshy, green stalks. Related to the cauliflower. Choose broccoli with tight compact heads and blue/green in colour. Avoid broccoli with open or yellowed flowers. To retain maximum flavour and nutrition, only lightly cook broccoli. Broccoli sprigs are lovely served with a dip, but the sprigs should be dipped into boiling water for approximately thirty seconds to change the blue-green colour to a rich green colour and then cooled before serving. Broccoli can be steamed, boiled or stir-fried. Whichever method of preparation you choose, be sure not to overcook, as broccoli is at its best when served tender crisp. Try using raw in salads. Add to your favourite soup, casserole or stir-fry. Broccoli is a cool climate crop. It grows best in sandy soils during autumn and winter and is adaptable to all climates with a cool winter. Once young heads have formed regular irrigation is required. Broccoli is a comparatively young vegetable which was first introduced to England in the 18th Century. It was originally known as Italian asparagus and progressed slowly to other countries. It belongs to the brassica family, along with cabbage, cauliflower and brussels sprouts. The name broccoli comes from the Italian word "brocco" meaning arm or branch and numerous forms of wild broccoli can be found along the coastline of the Mediterranean sea.
