Description: Broccoli Raab has many names, such as: Rapini Broccoli, Rabe Broccoli, and Raab Broccoli! Contrary to it's name, Broccoli Rabe is not broccoli at all! That seems to be the biggest misconception about this vegetable. While Chinese broccoli and broccolini are both in the same family as the regular old broccoli you’re familiar with, broccoli rabe is something else entirely. It’s actually more closely related to a turnip, even though it has those little buds, similar to those found on broccoli florets. Broccoli Rabe has a sharp bitter taste, but it is a delicious vegetable nonetheless! That bitterness would pair beautifully with many Italian dishes and sauces! To grow this wonderful vegetable choose a planting site that receives full sun and has well-draining soil. Apply a layer of 8-8-8 fertilizer to the planting site. Sow broccoli raab seeds 1/4 to 1/2 inch deep. Space the seeds one to three inches apart. Space the rows about 18 inches apart. Once the seeds sprout, thin to leave about 4 to 6 inches between plants. Plant them in early fall; they won’t mature until late winter or spring. Plants are ready to harvest when they reach 10 to 15 inches. You can either cut the entire plant at the base, or cut individual stems as they are ready, which is before the flower buds open. Enjoy!
