Romanesco
Extraordinary spiralled heads with mild, nutty flavor.
Heads are an alluring chartreuse in cool conditions and creamy white with a pink blush in summer. Favored for crudites and raw vegetable dishes. This cauliflower has northern Italian roots dating back to the 15th century and is a gourmet favorite today.
It will tolerate slightly alkaline soil, performing best in the 6.0 – 7.5 range.Harvest:
Romanesco heads should be harvested while curds are still tight. Check plants every 2-3 days. Cover developing heads or tie leaves together to protect heads from sunlight for blanched effect. Self-blanching varieties have tight leaf curl around heads so minimize need to cover. Harvest heads promptly when they are full size but still compact, white and smooth. Delaying harvest results in curds turning loose and ricey. Cool cauliflower immediately after harvest to retain quality.
