Description
An attractive plant with large dark green to black crinkled leaves. Black Tuscan kale has a deep, earthy flavor that's less bitter than curly kale and can have a nutty or sweet undertone.
Like all leafy vegetables, kale is high in iron. Best lightly steamed and served with butter and herbs as a side dish to roast meat, fried fish or vegetable lasagna. Use fresh young leaves in salads or add to stir-fries just prior to removing from the heat.
Plant in a sunny position in well drained but moist soil. It's also cold-tolerant and can handle frost and snow. Also suited to large pots.
Harvest young leaves regularly and remove flower stems as they appear.
Height 90cm x Width 50cm
