Ways to Use

  • Culinary: roast wedges, grill, braise, shave raw, or toast seed as spice.
  • Herbal: fronds for herb butters, green sauces, and marinades.

  • Fresh, Non-GMO seeds in a moisture-resistant packet

Pro tip: Keep growth steady and moist; earth up (mound) around swelling bases to blanch bulbs sweeter and whiter. Avoid root disturbance to reduce bolting.
