broccoli and kale are among vegetablesRecognized" "Anti-cancer master", and Xilan moss combines the best of the two, and the content of anti-cancer substances is much higher than that of its "parents."

A significant difference between broccoli and kale: Broccoli mainly harvests side moss, while kale mainly harvests main flower moss. The timing of picking will have a great impact on the flavor and quality of broccoli moss. When the side moss grows to 15-18 cm, the florets must be picked in time before they are formed and dispersed. When harvested too late, the buds are easy to bloom, and the moss branches are aging, which affects the quality.

post-harvest storage and transportation are also very particular, because the "breeze moss" flower moss is brittle, harvesting Later, it is more sensitive to temperature and humidity, so you need to use plastic wrap with cold storage or add ice in the packaging container for storage and transportation. At 4-5 degrees, 90-95% relative humidity, broccoli can be kept fresh for about one month, which is good for long-distance transportation.

The taste of broccoli is similar to that of asparagus. There are many ways to eat it. It can be cooked or eaten raw. The preparation method is simple. The whole flower bud can be eaten. It can be pickled. The key to dealing with broccoli Remove in time when the color becomes lighter. Because it is more slender than broccoli, it is easy to overcook, and it tastes like noodles. Boil in water for about 2 minutes, which will not only allow the broccoli to become ripe, but also keep its crispy texture.

Wuhan Yafei Seed Industry Co., Ltd.'s Xilantai No.1The variety has better adaptability, higher heat resistance, and good low-temperature growth performance. The flowers and stems have less fiber, and they taste sweet and soft. Generally, the yield per mu can reach 1000～1300kg. It is easy to cultivate. When the main flower bulb grows to about 5cm in diameter, remove the main flower bulb. The main flower ball is also edible, and the taste is better than broccoli. Removing the main flower bulb will help increase the yield of commercial moss. When the side moss grows to 15-18cm The harvest can be started, the harvesting period is relatively long, and the conditions can be as long as 45 days.
