Wow...I feel lazy now ;-) What is rapini by the way? And good luck with
all your plants! *is hungry now*


Rapini is also called broccoli raab. Part of the broccoli, cabbage,
etc family although it tends to taste somewhat like turnip.

We call it broccoli rabe and think of it as a bitter green. Some
folks forage for it along road sides but you have to get it before the
flowers open or too bitter. It sort of looks like broccoli getting
ready to seed on immature plants.
