Photo of Brassica rapa Tokyo Bekana (chinese cabbage lettuce oriental vegetable)
Brassica rapa Tokyo Bekana - A very nice-loose-head mini Chinese cabbage from Japan. Slightly curled mustard with light green, ruffled leaves. Although this heirloom variety can be grown to full size for cooking, the baby leaves are spectacular raw, and work particularly well in salad mixes for the market. Sometimes listed as "small Chinese cabbage," but it's closer to lettuce in texture, with a surprisingly sweet flavour that is neither hot (like some other mustards) or bitter (like some lettuces). At full size, its delicate leaves develop succulent white petioles, making it good for he spring-green leaves curl at the edges and mature with slim white stems that widen at the base. Bright light green curly and ruffled leaves add loft and weight to salad mixes. At full size, tender leaves on narrow, white petioles can be sold as a bunched green. Thin to 4–6" for full-size heads for bunching. Height To 40cm - Space at 30cm Family: Brassicaceae
