Kohl rabi seeds

Kohl rabi - Brassica oleracea var. gongylodes - from the Brassicaceae family is consumed for its stem forming a spherical and rounded prominence at its base, resembling a root. This vegetable, which fell into disuse due to wartime shortages, is gradually regaining its place on our tables, such as the Azur Star Kohl rabi. This is a good thing because when eaten raw, it is recognized for its flavour similar to chestnuts and radishes. When cooked, it offers a delicate taste similar to turnips, glazed with honey or in a gratin. This vegetable is rich in vitamins B9 and C, and regular consumption is said to prevent cardiovascular diseases.
