Description
xOcado Tenderstem® Broccoli. Harvested by hand, this Tenderstem® broccoli is a delicious and versatile vegetable that can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. With its long thin stems and small tender florets it has a subtly sweet and nutty flavour, with a hint of bitterness that is less pronounced than in regular broccoli. The texture is tender-crisp, with a satisfying crunch and the whole stem is edible, from the florets to the base.
Naturally high in fibre, vitamin C and folic acid, an 80g serving is 1 of your five a day. It is perfect for using in stir-fries, roasting, steaming, or simply blanching and serving with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of sea salt. Pairs well with Asian flavours such as soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and chilli.
Vegetarian
Country of origin may vary due to seasonality, specifically between Kenya, Morocco, Spain and the UK.
