BROCCOLINI

Broccolini is a cross between standard and Chinese broccoli. It features longer stalks, small florets, and a few leaves, all of which is edible. Unlike tradional broccoli, broccolini requires little prep work and cooks quickly. It has a mild, almost sweet flavor and is very high in Vitamin C.
