The deep purple skin of Purple Delicacy is a bold contrast to the flavourful white flesh within. Dice or slice to make the most of it’s looks. Eat fresh in salad or cook to bring out the nutty flavour tones to enjoy your crop. This variety is at it’s best sown a little later for an autumn and early winter harvest.
SOW: between April and June, in situ or modules to transplant when no more than 5cm tall.
GROW: space at 10-20cm, we find them to be a trouble free crop as they are drought and heat tolerant and resistant to pests and diseases.
ENJOY: for the best flavour eat them fresh. Cook the bulb, boil or steam, and serve with a sauce or try them stuffed. Kohl Rabi can also be grated raw into a salad. Young bulbs can be scrubbed and cooked whole – serve with butter, a white sauce or mash them.
