Romanesco Broccoli. A mild nutty taste. Kind of a cool. Texture of a cauliflower! Lightly Steamed for 15 minutes-added salt to taste. Has the Fibonacci sequence to it.

    I’ve had a picture of this on my phone for years because it always reminds me of the Mandelbrot set

    Texture stays a bit more crunchy than a broccoli or cauliflower, or better said – the texture is more even. You dont suddenly have a mushy part.

    Try it in a Papardelle Pasta with a garlicky peppery cream sauce and Salmon, its amazing

    I take these, break apart the little spires, blanche for 90 seconds, then toss with a mix of olive oil, shredded garlic, salt, pepper, anchovies or capers and some Calabrian chili paste. Sprinkle with Romano or Parmesan cheese and back at 400 for 30 minutes.

  4. I had this as a side dish in a restaurant recently. Served with Béarnaise sauce over it. Delicious.

    Available in green, purple, and gold, wherever finer produce is sold

    It’s a lovely vegetable – one of my favorites to use (fun to serve with a romesco sauce to screw with your service team.

    But it’s a fractal I think is the word you’re looking for Fibonacci is the snail shell spiral shape

    I’d feel bad eating that… like I’m spoiling some artwork

    It looks like the entry way to another dimension/world. Interesting texture
