This is sprout Rubine. They taste even better than they look - even the 'tops' are like a sweet kale.

adventures in non-violent subsistence
31 January 2007
It must be nearly February. I have swede, sprouts and kale in abundance - but not a lot else. The leeks didn't get sown in sufficient numbers and the warm autumn made all but one of the purple sprouting brocolli crop far too early. The bunching onions have been a revelation, however. I've got maybe 150 when stored maincrop onions are a mere memory. Admittedly the shallots are still ok and there's garlic galore from store, but bunching onions supplemented by leeks = year round onions.
