My Cavalo Nero is just beginning to bolt. Can I eat the shoots, bit like purple sprouting broccoli?
Was thinking of putting them in pasta, with anchovy oil and chilli.

You can eat all parts of a brassica (maybe not the roots!!) -
We do and all our kales - until they get infested with aphids

We had some tonight, just steamed. They were excellent: sweet, nutty, very tender. Better than purple sprouting broccoli I reckon.Comment

Reply to Heated mat for Tom's and chilliesI use a mix of six scoops of compost three scoops of sand/grit and two scoops of perlite,the quantity is unimportant as long as the ratio is the same, if for seeds I use this mix, if I am potting on I add some blood, fish and bone, along with a small quantity of chicken manure pellets
