Broccoli


This is Broccoli known as bracchium, meaning arm.
According to Wikipedia:
Broccoli is a plant of the Cabbage family, Brassicaceae (formerly Cruciferae). It is classified as the Italica Cultivar Group of the species Brassica oleracea. Broccoli possesses abundant fleshy flower heads, usually green in colour, arranged in a tree-like fashion on branches sprouting from a thick, edible stalk. The large mass of flower heads is surrounded by leaves. Broccoli most closely resembles cauliflower, which is a different cultivar group of the same species, but broccoli is green rather than white.
Anyway show me what you can do with Broccoli and let me know so I can visit you. If you would like to join Sunday Recipe just grab the logo here and put it in your sidebar and let me know about your recipe for the week.
