This bell is made of opaque black polypropylene and is mainly used for blanching salad vegetables, such as celery and endives. It enables simple and quick blanching, without the risk of the vegetables' hearts rotting. It is equipped with pointed feet for a more stable anchoring. Sold in packs of 3.

The 24 x 15cm (9 x 6in) Soparco black bell for blanching salad vegetables is a practical and effective accessory. Composed of opaque black plastic, it does not let any light in and completely covers the plant, protecting it from excessive moisture that would rot its heart. It also protects against frost and pests. Easy and quick to use, it simply sits on the plant. Its pointed feet sink into the soil for stability.

 

Blanching vegetables consists of depriving certain edible parts of the plant of light, making them white. Gardeners have been practicing this for a long time because these whitened parts are especially tender and flavourful (less bitter or sweeter depending on the vegetables). This process is used on lettuce hearts, chicory, dandelions, asparagus, and fennel.
